CULTURE

SUSTAINABILITY PLEDGE

Elevating Climate-Conscious Events | Aligned to the CSRD, Green Claims Directive & the Global Green Deal

At Mercatique Consulting, we recognize the urgency of climate action and the responsibility of the events industry in building a regenerative, inclusive future. We are committed to embedding sustainability, transparency, and equity into every event we produce.

Our sustainability approach is grounded in:

  • The Paris Climate Agreement

  • The EU Green Deal

  • The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)

  • The Green Claims Directive

  • The UN Sustainable Development Goals

  • National and global Just Transition frameworks

OUR SUSTAINABILITY PLEDGE

We pledge to support our clients — especially those working with the EU, global development agencies, and climate-aligned institutions — by designing and delivering events that meet or exceed emerging sustainability standards. Our goal is to create measurable, low-impact, high-value experiences that reinforce your ESG commitments and uphold the principles of accountability, transparency, and climate justice.

SUSTAINABILITY PROCUREMENT & SUPPLY CHAIN DUE DILIGENCE

We prioritize local, ethical, and inclusive suppliers who meet environmental and social standards. Our supplier code of conduct aligns with the EU Supply Chain Due Diligence Act and encourages circular economy principles.

CARBON - CONSCIOUS EVENT DESIGN

We incorporate digital options, hybrid formats, and travel reduction strategies to minimize the carbon footprint of your event. We support post-event carbon tracking and offset recommendations upon request.

WASTE & RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

We work with venues and caterers to implement zero-waste goals, encourage composting, eliminate single-use plastics, and prioritize reusable materials across signage, décor, and packaging.

ACCESSIBILITY & EQUITY

Sustainability is not only environmental. We ensure all events are inclusive, accessible, and reflective of local communities, supporting the “S” in ESG with meaningful economic participation, particularly among women, youth, and small businesses.

GREENWASHING TRANSPARENCY

We support our clients in making accurate sustainability claims and avoid vague or misleading language. Our documentation, impact tracking, and post-event reporting aligns with the EU Green Claims Directive to support verified, science-based claims.
