Context
The French Badminton Federation (FFBad) is firmly committed to a social performance approach, focusing on four fundamental pillars: health, education, eco-responsibility and inclusion. This ambitious vision extends to all our regional structures, departmental committees and federated clubs.
With this in mind, the carbon footprint has emerged as an essential tool. Perceived as a concrete means of assessing and reducing environmental impact, the carbon footprint offers a comprehensive approach to measuring greenhouse gas emissions.
To achieve this objective, the French Badminton Federation opted for the GCI platform. To best meet the federation's requirements, GCI developed a customized input mask, enabling them to calculate the federal headquarters' carbon footprint as accurately as possible.
The FFBaD project is continuing with the GHG assessment of 20 clubs and the introduction of a data entry mask adapted to the activities of structures affiliated to the French Badminton Federation.
