36、 A sustainable event entails incorporating considerations of the environmental, social, and economic impacts of hosting an event into all areas of event planning and management in order to minimize negative impacts, augment positive benefits, and create positive legacies for present and future gener

37、ations.This Standard specifies requirements and provides guidance for event organizers seeking to plan and execute sustainable events. Implementing this Standard will help to make an event more environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable in an ethical and transparent manner. In addition,

38、 event organizers will be able to use this Standard to support public claims of their contribution to sustainability.This Standard was prepared by the Technical Committee on Sustainable Events, under the jurisdiction of the Strategic Steering Committee on Business Management and Sustainability, and

39、has been formally approved by the Technical Committee.November 2010Notes: (1) Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and vice versa) when the sense allows.(2) Although the intended primary application of this Standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the resp

40、onsibility of the users of the Standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.(3) This publication was developed by consensus, which is defined by CSA Policy governing standardization Code of good practice for standardization as “substantial agreement. Consensus implies much more tha

41、n a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity”. It is consistent with this definition that a member may be included in the Technical Committee list and yet not be in full agreement with all clauses of this publication.(4) To submit a request for interpretation of CSA Standards, please send the

42、following information to inquiriescsa.ca and include “Request for interpretation” in the subject line:(a) define the problem, making reference to the specific clause, and, where appropriate, include an illustrative sketch;(b) provide an explanation of circumstances surrounding the actual field condi

43、tion; and(c) where possible, phrase the request in such a way that a specific “yes” or “no” answer will address the issue.Committee interpretations are processed in accordance with the CSA Directives and guidelines governing standardization and are published in CSAs periodical Info Update, which is

44、available on the CSA website at http:/standardsactivities.csa.ca.(5) CSA Standards are subject to periodic review, and suggestions for their improvement will be referred to the appropriate committee. To submit a proposal for change to CSA Standards, please send the following information to inquiries

45、csa.ca and include “Proposal for change” in the subject line:(a) Standard designation (number);(b) relevant clause, table, and/or figure number;(c) wording of the proposed change; and(d) rationale for the change.

47、 environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable in an ethical and transparent manner.Event organizers will be able to use this Standard to support public claims of their contribution to sustainability.0.2 Impacts of eventsThe event organizer is responsible for the identification of the soci

48、al, environmental, and economic impacts caused by the activities related to the event, and should take responsibility for the elimination or significant reduction of negative impacts, while also identifying and pursuing opportunities for augmenting positive impacts.This is achieved through transpare

49、nt and ethical behaviour in all stages of event management and sustainable development. The process should(a)take into account the expectations of stakeholders;(b) abide by applicable laws;(c) be consistent with international norms of behaviour;(d) be integrated in all the event organizers operations; and(e) be practiced by the event organizer in its relationships with stakeholders.0.3 Principles of sustainable eventsSustainable development means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own n
