Making events eco-friendly.
Much discussion has occurred of late regarding the ‘evils’ of plastic waste. Various events have sought to draw attention to, and to directly address, this issue through their own practices.
Events leading the way in this area include the Wave Rock Weekender in Western Australia and the Volvo Ocean Race.
Playing a significant role in the latter is the Founder of the Sustainable Event Alliance (SEA), Meegan Jones, who has been instrumental in its efforts in this area.
Meegan established SEA to aid the event industry as it seeks to respond to the broader issue of environmentally sustainable event management.

About Event Training Australia
Event Training Australia (ETA) has its origins in the recently closed Australian Event Award-winning Australian Centre for Event Management (ACEM), University of Technology, Sydney.
We now run intensive 4-day event management courses and on-demand, 1 and 2 day workshops in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Sydney, Singapore and Malaysia (KL).
ETA was established to continue, and build upon, ACEM’s event training and education legacy. As such, ETA draws on over 20 years of experience in the development of innovative practice-based education and training programs in the event management field. These programs span one-day workshops to Masters level university courses. ETA’s understanding of ‘best practice’ event management is further reflected in its founder’s (Dr Rob Harris) co-authoring of the widely used texts and handbooks – Festival and Special Event Management, Event Management and the Regional Event Management Handbook.
