SDG "Health and well-being"
In Hessian: "It goes de Mensche wie de Leut"
What is it about and what does the SDG "Health and Well-being" mean for the event industry?
The overarching goal is to maintain and restore human health. Climate change in particular can have a direct and indirect impact on health. For the event industry, this means that the health and safety of participants and employees should be a top priority. Events should be designed to promote the well-being of participants, both physically and mentally(source tw-media.com (opens in a new tab)).
