Congratulations to the FRA team in the US who last week successfully certified to the ISO Event Sustainability Standard (ISO20121), with no audit findings.
This is a fantastic result, especially for an initial certification audit and really reflects the effort and commitment Ellen and the team have put in to achieve ISO 20121 certification.
A significant part of the audit was to review the great work planning and executing the Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) event in April. Sustainability is a big focus for the team, making sure to engage with venues that are equally committed to sustainability, looking to reduce waste and encourage recycling, contributing to the community, and addressing the accessibility needs of attendees, among many other sustainability issues.
Our thanks to Laurie Mutdosch and Taylor Torres for participating in the audit and doing a great job of demonstrating their commitment to sustainability. The certificate will be well deserved!
