The CSANZ Meeting is committed to sustainability practice and reducing the impact on the environment. We encourage all attendees, sponsors, exhibitors, and suppliers to also consider environmentally friendly options in attending the Meeting.
Our efforts to reduce our carbon footprint:
Please see below some of the initiatives underway with the organisers and suppliers for the Meeting.
Since joining in 2007, the Adelaide Convention Centre has enjoyed a long relationship with the internationally renowned EarthCheck program.
In 2018, the ACC proudly became the first convention centre in the world to achieve the coveted EarthCheck Platinum Certification. The achievement represents ‘best practice’ in sustainability and reflects 10 years of continuous certification with the EarthCheck program. There are just 34 properties worldwide to have achieved Platinum Certification, including only two convention centres.
They are now well on our way towards achieving EarthCheck Master status!
