The COVID-19 pandemic has had profound human and economic consequences on the events sector, questioning the industry’s resilience and future. Events as we knew them no longer exist. Far from pushing the sustainability agenda to the bottom of the list, the current crisis is demanding a “systems reset” that requires a new safe, resilient, inclusive and zero carbon growth model.
This requires a paradigm shift in in how events are designed, implemented, and measured. We call this the Regenerative Revolution.
In this inspirational and fun Masterclass you will be:
- provoked and guided towards an approach to event design that acts, within planetary boundaries, rebuilds society, and regenerates nature.
- moved from a sustainability viewpoint to a regenerative approach to event management.
- using the Hannuwa approach, we will explore strategy development, to stakeholder engagement, circular economy, regenerative food approaches, social impact, measurement, and reporting.
- The theory will be enlightened with presentations from leading event sustainability practitioners from leading global agencies, corporates and associations.
What is this course about?
Sustainability is no longer an optional add-on. Instead, events need to be intentionally designed to create and leave a long-term impact on their participants and host communities. In this fun, engaging, and dynamic course, you will gain an understanding Regenerative events Framework and will have a chance to develop and create your own regenerative event plan.
