Annecy Festival Commits! 

Concerned about current issues and our impacts, we are constantly examining the way we design, produce and run our event, with an aim for ongoing improvement, to prepare for the future with commitment and to generate a more virtuous and sustainable ecosystem.

If Annecy Festival plays a unique role in facilitating meetings, creation, business and transmission of values, this event, which attracts around 13,000 badgeholders, must keep its environmental impact to a minimum.

This is the reason why we commit to a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) approach, by implementing an action plan guided in particular by the "Sustainable Development Charter for Festivals" established by the French Ministry of Culture in 2021. To direct this initiative, we will be carrying out a carbon footprint assessment this year.

Here are our main goals:

	1/ Limit our festivalgoers’ carbon footprint
	2/ Control consumption
	3/ Provide responsible food
	4/ Reduce and recycle waste
	5/ Implement a sustainable purchasing policy
	6/ Reinforce the quality of our public reception and cultivate improved social harmony
	7/ Raise awareness about ecological, social and societal responsibilities
