The new National Sports Strategy that has been released

Designing and implementing sustainability into sporting events.

From reducing waste and emissions to conserving energy and water, the final episode of our webinar series delved into how to create environmentally responsible events, improve fan experience without compromising event management.

This year’s #SEASummit24 focus was The Future of Sport: Taking action today for tomorrow and was held at Marvel Stadium, Melbourne on Wednesday 17 April 2024.

What does implementing a broader ESG strategy mean for sport? 

What is carbon, and why is it important to not only calculate your organisation's emissions, but to develop a plan to minimise the emissions?

Discover how we can support the natural and built environments which provide us with the places and spaces to play and be active. Learn from industry experts and gain practical insights around how to protect these sporting environments by embracing regenerative practices for improving the health of our soils, waterways and forests.

A venue can consume as much energy during a single football game as 10,000 homes would use in the same period. Given the scale of energy consumption, addressing energy decarbonization is critical and offers significant opportunities for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

This year’s #SEASummit24 focused on why we must act now on sustainability and climate action to preserve the future of our sport. We have an exciting program planned, designed to be engaging, stimulating and empowering; everything that is needed for you to drive the changes needed within your sports organisation.

Circularity is unequivocally becoming part of the thinking for major events and facilities. Whether it's switching to reusable plates and utensils to creating compost from food waste, it is important to identify opportunities for circularity. Collaboration between suppliers and end-users is crucial. To invoke change, waste needs to be thought of as a commodity or potential revenue stream, which would make circularity more financially attractive.

Procurement is a powerful lever to drive change, and sustainable procurement is a tool to support implementation of environmental and circular economy goals, especially around waste reduction. Here, Katherine Ponton, from the Recycled First, Markets Acceleration Team, Sustainability Victoria speaks around the importance of driving sustainability through sustainable procurement.
