FC Barcelona has received the renewal of the Biosphere certification, a recognition that confirms that both the club and the Museum are committed to providing services in a responsible manner that benefits society and the environment. According to the Barça club, they have received this certification for the second year in a row, which is in line with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and the United Nations 2030 Agenda. The club is dedicated to promoting sustainable development in all areas of its operations to maintain high standards and renew important certifications related to sustainability. The Biosphere certification is in line with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the United Nations 2030 Agenda. It is awarded by the Institute of Responsible Tourism (ITR), an independent organization established in 1995 to promote sustainable development initiatives. The ITR is supported by UNESCO, is a founding member of the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC), and is sponsored by the United Nations Foundation. Since 2017, Biosphere has been recognized as the first global sustainability certification system aligned with the 2030 Agenda, its 169 targets, and 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For the second year in a row, both FC Barcelona and its Museum have been honored with this certification for their efforts in areas such as climate change, sustainable energy, water conservation, biodiversity, responsible consumption, sustainable infrastructure, cultural heritage, economic development, well-being, safety, health, quality education, gender equality, female empowerment, reduction of inequalities, and decent work. One of the key requirements to renew this certification is to demonstrate at least three improvement actions taken. FC Barcelona has achieved this by calculating their carbon footprint, promoting healthy menus for workers and visitors, providing an inclusive language guide, and using light sensors in sinks, particularly in the Museum, to enhance energy efficiency. Sustainability is a fundamental aspect of the 2026 Strategic Plan, encompassing non-financial economic aspects, governance, sports, social responsibility, and environmental initiatives. The club continues to support sustainable projects, including those at the Spotify Camp Nou construction site and within Espai Barça.They have a direct impact on the remodeling process of the future Camp Nou and will also have it with the completion of the Espai Barça project, both in terms of energy, water, waste, and preservation of biodiversity: they will be applied to all the facilities where it is developed the daily activity of the club, both in Les Corts and in the Ciutat Esportiva complex.
