Carbon Footprint Study of the Portuguese General Publishing Market

The idea was simple. For books to be truly sustainable the full supply chain needs to be working together to rapidly decarbonize. But it is difficult to see how actions being taken across the supply chain were making tangible carbon reductions. To do this, we used a carbon footprint approach to give an initial estimate of the overall carbon impact of the Portuguese general publishing sector. The data would be supplemented by qualitative interviews to help identify areas where action can happen.

Women Leaders in Scholarly Publishing: Empowering Self and Inspiring Others

This online webinar recognises that scholarly publishing faces significant challenges related to DEIA, and gender is one critical dimension that demands attention. While women are in many roles within publishing, there are too few leading publishing houses. Improvement is needed, and this session focuses on the role of women in leadership. In an area where we know gender disparities persist, it is heartening to recognize that women are at the forefront, leading the way in various roles.

Annual Meeting

Our Annual Meeting format plan—alternating annually between virtual and in-person meetings—represents positive climate action and equitable learning opportunities for member press staff. Our virtual meetings lessen the impact of global travel and lower cost barriers to participation. At in-person conferences, we decrease materials usage with online-only programs and linen-less banquet tables, and we ask attendees to bring their own tote bags rather than manufacturing new ones.
