The Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) is committed to becoming a leading environmentally sustainable convention centre. We are committed to excellence in environmental responsibility in all facets of our business – from infrastructure and operational policies to recycling programmes, CTICC is serious about making a difference and becoming an industry leader in sustainability and event greening.

As a convention centre, whose business principles are built around the ethos of sustainability, the centre is committed to combatting climate change and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The centre aims to transform the meetings and events industry to one that is sustainable and has been proactive in developing innovative new sustainable strategies and initiatives that will assist not only the centre to achieve its green goals and enhance its business performance, but suppliers and meetings and event planners as well.

The CTICC recognises and embraces the responsibility it has to make a sustainable positive contribution to society by supporting and uplifting communities in Cape Town and the Western Cape. This support extends beyond financial investment and includes providing opportunities for staff, clients and guests to involve themselves in worthy causes through volunteerism. The centre supports the following four local community partners:

• The Haven Night Shelter
  
• The Foundation for Alcohol Related Research (FARR)
  
• Abalimi Bezekhaya
  
• Mitchells Plain School of Skills
