Welcome and SESSION I: How can we make sustainability more visible? (chair: Ariela Herček, Arnes)

 From greener services and sustainable design choices to hybrid events, we welcome presentations from marcomms experts that showcase successful (or not) comms around sustainability practices as well as from sustainability experts to highlight which topics and stories marcomms can help tell. We also welcome reflections on the challenges of greenwashing, digital vs. f2f practices, and how to tell compelling sustainability stories, even when the message is difficult.
