Environmental Considerations and Ecological Sustainability Concept

As part of our commitment to ecological sustainability during the 46th Annual Conference of the International Society for Clinical Biostatistics, we are taking several initiatives to ensure our event is as green as possible.

We are thrilled to partner with BWT (Best Water Technology) - our esteemed sustainability sponsor. BWT is aligned with our sustainability vision and will generously provide each conference attendee with a specially designed Climate Bottle: https://www.bwt-shop.ch/de/climatebottle.html. These reusable bottles will eliminate the need for single-use plastic, contributing significantly to our plastic waste reduction goals. Attendees will have access to water dispensers throughout the venue to refill these bottles, ensuring a constant supply of fresh water while promoting sustainable practices.

Moreover, in an effort to reduce emission and carbon footprint, we have chosen not to organize buses for social activities. Instead, we encourage all attendees to utilize Basel’s excellent public transportation system. When you stay overnight in Basel, you will receive the BaselCard and benefit from free travel on public transport. The booking confirmation of your hotel or Airbnb in Basel serves as a free ticket for the transfer from the airport or train station to your hotel.

Lastly, all lunch boxes made available during the conference will be fully vegetarian, while we ensure to accommodate vegan or other dietary requirements as needed.

We are dedicated to making ISCB46 an event to be remembered, not just for its scientific contributions, but for its dedication to ecological sustainability as well.
