Sustainability
We work actively to ensure that environmental awareness and sustainable development are integrated throughout Swedish Biodiversity Symposium. Our meeting partner, Academic Meetings, is part of the University of Gothenburg and is certified according to the international standard for environmental management ISO 14001 and registered under the equivalent to the EU’s EMAS.
All meals served during the Swedish Biodiversity Symposium are vegetarian. Lunch and coffee breaks are prepared at the Wallenberg Conference Centre, where the caterer, JD Restauranger, is KRAV-certified. Coffee, tea, and bananas are always both organic and Fairtrade.
The lunch menu is developed in close dialogue with the kitchen’s suppliers to minimize waste and make use of available ingredients, which means that menu adjustments are often made up until the last moment.
