A practical guide making sustainable events the easy choice
Za Zemiata published a practical zero waste event guide offering concrete advice on hosting low-waste and waste-free events: covering catering, packaging, waste station design, volunteering, and post-event reporting. The guide has been well received by business partners as well as civil society, positioning waste reduction as a competitive advantage rather than an obligation.
What the guide covers
- Step-by-step instructions for event planners: pre-event, during, and post-event waste management
- Catering supplier checklist for single-use plastic alternatives and reusable systems
- Waste station layout templates optimised for different event sizes
- Communication templates for telling attendees what they can do
- Case studies from Bulgarian events that have already adopted zero waste practices
How to engage
- Event organisers in Bulgaria: download the guide from Za Zemiata and share it with your catering and venue partners
- Businesses hosting corporate events: use the guide as a starting point for your sustainability commitments
- Municipalities planning public events: contact Za Zemiata for tailored support applying the guide to specific local contexts
Why it matters
Festivals and corporate gatherings generate concentrated waste in a single weekend. A practical guide lowers the barrier for organisers who want to do better, turning zero waste from a niche commitment into something any venue can plan for.
