Development of the 2018 Vision

In 2010 an advisory board was created for England’s FIFA World Cup 2018 bid by the environmental sustainability advisor to the bid, Fiona Pelham.

The advisory board worked on identifying what would be necessary for an event in 2018 to be as sustainable as possible and created a list of targets.

Each target was supported by a relevant body who could provide free or low cost information and resource to enable the event sector to work towards this 2018 vision.

The advisory board gathered again in March 2011 to discuss how this roadmap of targets and support could be shared with the event industry.

The not for profit education provider Positive Impact was chosen as a base for sharing the 2018 vision with the event sector.
