EMAS certification

Sustainable meetings

Environmental protection? But of course!

More and more conference guests are paying attention to environmentally friendly travel – and therefore feel that they are in the best hands at our Protestant Educational Center on Schwanenwerder.

Because we act sustainably and support you in making an important contribution to environmental protection during your conference. As a society of the Evangelical Church in Germany, the Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg Silesian Upper Lusatia and the Evangelical Academy in Berlin, we would like to play our part in preserving creation.

Climate protection

Out of conviction

Our actions include a responsible and careful approach to the natural and social environment and regular self-monitoring. The entire team is geared towards current climate protection requirements.

EMAS certificate - Community eco-management and audit scheme

Our environmental management seal of approval

The basis for this is our voluntarily initiated “EMAS” certification, which has been in place since 2013. As part of this, we as a company communicate our environmental management system, which is regularly assessed by external auditors, to the outside world with maximum transparency.

With the current “EMAS” environmental statement from 2023, we are once again bearing witness to the progress we have made and our ongoing commitment. We document achievements, evaluate developments self-critically and make success measurable.

You are welcome to browse through our environmental report, which is available as a pdf download below.

Request

We would like to respond to your special wishes, because nothing is more important to us than being able to contribute to the success of your event in our house. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any special requests!

We will be happy to help and provide you with an individual offer tailored to your needs.
