Presenting Host Toolkit

  • Present a Campus Spotlight Session
    Host a live conference session showcasing your campus’s innovative practices and initiatives (if desired by the Presenting Host, this session can be submitted post-conference as an on-demand video presentation or an AASHE webinar instead). All presentations require a proposal be submitted and approved by AASHE.

  • Host an Experiential Learning Opportunity (ELO)
    Set the stage for the conference by hosting a pre-conference activity on your campus. ELOs are crafted to provide attendees with firsthand insights into the sustainability initiatives on your campus. AASHE will assist with the promotion and sales of your ELO, but all logistics associated with the ELO is the responsibility of the Host Institution.

  • Drop Off Promotional Materials at Registration
    Drop off promotional items at Registration to be set up on our shared Presenting Host Institution table in the Expo Hall for attendees to peruse and take. Examples of promotional items could be sign up sheets, brochures, or sustainable giveaways. Please be mindful of our recommendations for Best Green Practices for Exhibitors:

    • Limit brochures and paper handouts in favor of sending information via email or providing QR Codes or encouraging attendees to snap a photo of signage at the table.
    • Use non-dated event neutral designs so items may be used for future events 
    • Print signage and handouts through FSC-certified printers and/or paper made of post-consumer content
    • Use non-chlorine inks such as vegetable or soy
    • Print and purchase what you can in the host city to reduce shipping. When shipping, only send what you need and avoid packaging peanuts (polystyrene) or other difficult to recycle toxic materials
    • If you wish to hand out swag to attendees, please choose utilitarian items that are sustainably made and recyclable (avoid “brandfill”)
    • Use sustainable and/or recycled materials in your exhibit table

Make the most of your time with AASHE!
