Strategies to be considered
for reducing or minimizing
the ecological footprint of
the conference.
We will provide participants with a fabric bag containing stationery from recycled materials along with a water bottle preferably made of glass to be used during their stay in Athens.
We plan to have several water stations located in various meeting spots in the conference area.
CONVIN applies and incorporates socially and environmentally responsible decision making into the planning and aims at ensuring that an event is hosted responsibly. Organising a Green Meeting is another marketing tool that can improve public relations and demonstrate a responsible commitment. It also ensures that all business partners, at all levels, share our values on sustainability and growth.
A paperless meeting: Use of the latest technologies to replace paper print (i.e. mobile applications, e-posters). In addition, if the participants don’t need a print version of the conference program, the relevant amount will be sent to non profit organisations.
Travel Venue: Location and destination are strategically chosen to minimize CO2 emissions.
Food & Beverage: Our choice of venue will offer fair trade, locally-selected products. Our meeting planners make sure that well-balanced meals are served in the right quantity to reduce waste. Moreover, we support non-profit organisations that prevent food waste, by distributing the surplus of food of congresses, to people in need throughout Greece.
Social Events: Our team will do their utmost to organise ecologically minded social events.
