For several years, AIM Italy has been supporting the ‘Food for Good’ programme, which transforms waste into a valuable resource. The programme, promoted by Federcongressi&eventi (national meeting industry association) in collaboration with the NGOs Banco Alimentare (food bank) and Equoevento, enabled our teams to recover surplus food from the major events (>100 participants) that they organised in Italy in 2022 and to deliver it to local charitable organisations (family homes, soup kitchens and refugee centres), thereby reducing the event’s environmental impact and supporting local communities.

Australasian event management company Arinex has become the first to trial a new reforestation project open to business event groups visiting Tropical North Queensland. While in Cairns for the Arinex Conference, team members had an opportunity to learn about and revitalise the endangered ecosystem of the Wongabel Mabi Forest Restoration project. The team funded the planting of enough native trees to remove the non-travel related carbon emissions generated by the conference. Situated on the Atherton Tablelands near Cairns, the project is the only one of its kind involving Mabi Forest species. It is a collaboration between Reforest (a company that assists businesses in taking climate action), Terrain (an environmental management organisation), and the local community.
