Greenevents has renewed, for the fourth consecutive year, the adhesion to the Biosphere -Responsible Tourism

Aware of the importance of maintaining and promoting sustainable tourism development, and assuming the principles and objectives adopted at the World Summit on Sustainable Development 2015, COP 21 and the World Charter for Sustainable Tourism + 20, Greenevents is committed to continuous improvement in its sustainable management.

We understand sustainable management as that which includes (1) social criteria (promoting the local economy, fair trade products, social and labor insertion of disadvantaged groups, ethical banking, strengthening the social market, and participation in associations that promote sustainable development), (2) environmental (prevent and reduce the impact on the generation of waste and the consumption of non-renewable resources, and choose the consumption of renewables) and (3) organization and work under the principles of cooperativism (participation , transparency, salary and gender equity, training, personal conciliation, sharing the knowledge generated).

How does Greenevents contribute to responsible tourism?

Greenevents has adopted the following Responsible Tourism Policy, through which it undertakes to comply with the requirements established in the BIOSPHERE adhesion, which include the control and continuous improvement of the following criteria: (1) economic and social ( supply chain with responsible criteria, participation in associations to promote the social and economic integration of the community, promotion of universal accessibility measures, respect and promotion of the cultural and environmental heritage of the territory), (2) environmental (supply chain with criteria ecological, prevention and reduction of environmental impacts -landscape, energy, atmospheric emissions, water, waste, acoustics-), and (3) organization and work (occupational risk prevention, training on Responsible Tourism, quality customer service and communication of the good sustainability practices of the environment and of our entity).
