Sustainable Event Resources
The City of Eugene provides a framework and tools to deliver events sustainably and promote a sustainable business ecosystem. The goal is to leverage the local interest in sustainable practices to adopt a ‘sustainable event standard’ to accomplish community goals and engage event attendees in sustainable behaviors. Additionally, the City of Eugene continues to develop event sustainability tools and provide event resources which are available to everyone.
