The BWN assists and advises\u00a0Brussels-based companies in the field of waste prevention\u00a0and management.<\/p>\n<p>The programme ensures networking between\u00a0environmental advisors from different sectors of activity to\u00a0enable the exchange of best practices in business waste\u00a0prevention and\/or management. The Meetings Go Green\u00a0project aimed to increase awareness among event\u00a0managers (e.g. hotels, businesses, caterers, conference\u00a0centres, etc.) through four workshops that took place in\u00a02016 and were coordinated by the environmental\u00a0consultancy \u201821solutions\u2019 and the event agency \u2018Yuzu\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>This guide is the result of many discussions,\u00a0presentations and exchanges of ideas between the\u00a0participants. Several aspects considered essential for\u00a0greening events have been addressed: sustainable\u00a0procurement, reduction of food waste, waste sorting,\u00a0recycling, eco-design (a concept detailed later in this\u00a0guide) and material reuse.<\/p>\n<p>A total of about sixty participants benefited from many\u00a0example-rich interventions by sector professionals\u00a0and actors active in the event industry (companies,\u00a0associations&#8230;). This guide is designed for all planners\u00a0and suppliers who organise or work on events\u00a0throughout Belgium, including Brussels.<\/p>\n<p>We can help make your meetings green &amp; resource efficient\u00a0Don&#8217;t hesitate to\u00a0contact Laure Dupuy from 21 Solutions :\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:laure@21solutions.eu\">laure@21solutions.eu<\/a>\u00a0ou +32 2 502 99 93 for more information.<\/p>\n<p>Download the guide in\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/21solutions.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Meetings-Go-Green_FR_WEB_LD.pdf\">FR<\/a>\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/21solutions.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Meetings-Go-Green_NL_WEB_LD.pdf\">NL<\/a>\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/21solutions.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Meetings-Go-Green_ENG_WEB_LD.pdf\">ENG<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your solutions for a zero waste event :\u00a0How the event industry meets the circular economy Our latest 24 pages guide will help make your meetings green &amp; resource efficient &nbsp; The purpose of this guide is to provide tools, best practices\u00a0and courses of action to event managers for organizing\u00a0eco-friendly low-waste activities, highlighting several\u00a0existing innovative solutions.
