These ensure that the practices adopted have a minimal environmental impact and promote positive social consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ISO 20121 is an international standard specifically designed for sustainable event management, providing a framework for staging events in a sustainable manner.<br>It has been developed to help planners manage the economic, environmental and social aspects of their events, while reducing negative impacts and enhancing positive ones. First adopted for the London 2012 Olympic Games, ISO 20121 guides organisations in implementing sustainable processes throughout the life cycle of an event, from planning and execution to monitoring and continual improvement. The ISO standard promotes stakeholder engagement, resource efficiency and transparency, contributing to the delivery of more responsible and environmentally-friendly events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div
