The following publication is part of a series of 7 pieces prepared by Glion's IHB Masters students during a one-day workshop aiming at highlighting the potential of the hospitality industry to contribute to the achievement of the UN SDGs by 2030. All figures, data and initiatives are fictitious and were created by students in the context of an immersive and transformative learning experience where students generated ideas and propositions that transcend the conventional thanks to the simulation of a professional conference taking place in 2030.

This piece focuses on SDG 12, Responsible consumption and production and students decided to focus on the supply chain of fish. From fishing to waste management they identified the actions to be taken at each step to reduce waste, limit pollution and lower carbon emissions while taking into account the social implications for stakeholders contributing to the value chain. Thanks to stronger regulation, a life-cycle approach to fish produce and international partnerships, students saw the possibility to significantly increase the share of fish from sustainable fisheries and to reduce the GHG of the food industry to 10% of all GHG by 2030 (from 25-30% in 2023).
