Our sustainable event
Sustainability is a priority for the PES. We promote and push for sustainable actions not only in our policies but also in our work and the organisation of the PES Congress.
In setting up the event, we have taken into consideration the impact we are making on the environment, by taking into account the design and management of the event, its location and its impact on the city it is taking place in. The PES Congress event is reducing to the maximum the usage of paper, has its branding in a predominantly digital format and for its printed branding materials we have chosen to use water-based printing on environmentally friendly materials. The PES goal is to reduce as much as possible the carbon footprint of its Congress.
Organiser
The Europe we want: social, democratic, sustainable. is organised by the Party of European Socialists.
The PES brings together the socialist, social democratic, labour and democratic parties from all over the European Union, the UK and Norway. Together with 33 full member parties and 13 associate and 16 observer parties, we fight for a better and more progressive Europe.
