Sustainable Congress

Sustainable Congress

Sustainable solutions in organising the NCGP2024 congress will be of special interest to us. Our congress city Turku aims to be carbon neutral by 2029 and climate positive from then onwards.

The congress hotels and the congress venue Logomo are easily accessible on foot or by city-bike. Locally produced food will be served during congress days and recyclable materials used whenever possible. We encourage attendees to help reduce the environmental impact of their participation by considering the environmentally friendly travel options.

Sustainable Goals of the NCGP2024

Here are some of our sustainable goals, more information will be updated soon.

  • Paperless congress (only a pocket programme will be printed out)
  • Recycled and eco-friendly materials (e.g. congress bags, name badges and lanyards)
  • Reducing food waste during the congress
NCGP2024 Congress strongly encourages attendees to help reduce the environmental impact of their participation by considering the following:
  • Using sustainable travelling to visit the congress
  • Booking accessible accommodation nearby the congress venue to reduce carbon footprint (see the accommodation information here)
  • Avoiding the distribution of flyers or other printed materials
  • Using the mobile application (instead of printing) for creation of personal programme
  • Returning the name badge lanyard after the congress (will be reused and recycled)
  • Managing the process of avoiding the food waste
  • Applying a strict waste separation
