The mission of the SIETAR Europa 2024 Congress project is driven by a commitment to sustainability and a desire to set an example for future events within the intercultural and diversity field. Our mission can be summarized in the following key aspects.

Environmental Responsibility:

Our primary goal is to organize a Congress that aligns with the principles of environmental responsibility. By minimizing the environmental footprint of both the event and participant travel, we aim to reduce the Congress’s contribution to climate change and environmental degradation.

Collaboration and Engagement:

We believe in the power of collaboration and inclusivity. Our mission is to bring together a diverse team of individuals who share a passion for sustainability. This team will work collectively to brainstorm innovative ideas and develop concrete plans for achieving our sustainability objectives. We also value engagement with the venue’s sustainability experts, as they already hold a crucial role in promoting environmentally friendly practices.

Education and Inspiration:

Beyond organizing a sustainable congress, we aspire to educate and inspire attendees, exhibitors, and partners. We intend to use this event as a platform to showcase best practices in sustainability, raising awareness and encouraging long-term change within the SIETAR community and beyond.

Legacy and Leadership:

SIETAR Europa 2024 Congress aims to leave a positive legacy by setting a benchmark for sustainability in the field of intercultural and diversity conferences. By demonstrating that large-scale events can be conducted with minimal environmental impact, we seek to inspire other organizations and individuals to follow suit, becoming leaders in the global sustainability movement.
