Tourism plays a key role in reducing the country's carbon footprint. It is often claimed that this sector encourages irresponsible economic growth. The Monegasque Government's Office of Tourism and Conventions is well aware of these problems. In response, it has adopted a policy of social and environmental responsibility and, with the help of its partners, has drawn up a specific roadmap based on the Sustainable Development Goals. The Monaco Convention Bureau provides invaluable support to the MICE industry and to clients wishing to adopt a sustainable approach.
By the nature of its work, the events industry deals primarily with temporary projects. From trade shows to conferences and concerts, events of this type tend to be logistically very demanding, requiring large quantities of equipment for a very limited period of time. It is therefore essential to consider the impact of your event well in advance. That's why this guide has been created to help you identify the different sources of emissions and adopt a more sustainable approach.
