Sustainability
A key aspect of social marketing is sustainability which is why the World Social Marketing Conference aims to have as little impact on the environment as possible. We aim to achieve this by:
- Offsetting the carbon footprint of the conference
- Minimising the use of paper at the conference
- Sourcing local produce and suppliers wherever possible
- Ensuring our partners have a transparent and sustainable environmental policy.
Further details regarding the conference's sustainability and carbon offsetting will be added in due course.
