Why you should join the Event Greening Forum

The EGF is a non-profit organisation, and we believe that sustainable practices make business sense and better events. It is our aim to help the South African MICE events industry transform into one that is more environmentally and socially sustainable, while also being economically viable. In fact, we believe all three of these elements must be present to create successful events and an ecosystem conducive to hosting successful events.

If you believe this too, we invite you to join us and become a member of the EGF.
