Sustainability training programme

We promote sustainability in SMEs in our supply chain with the ‘Sustainability for CEOs and Executives’ training programme

In a new partnership with the UN Global Compact Spain and as a response to one of the lines of action identified at the ‘SMEs + SUSTAINABLE Conference’, we’re providing our SME suppliers with these training segments to help their CEOs and Executives to learn about the basic principles of sustainability and the advantages of promoting a more responsible supply chain.

The programme is promoted by the United Nations Global Compact and its local network in Spain.

The main objective of this training programme was to provide our suppliers with the knowledge and tools to align their practices with the sustainability principles established by the United Nations, promoting a positive impact on human rights, labour standards, the environment, and the fight against corruption.

These six training modules included in the programme and additional resources for each of the sessions are available free of charge below. Click play and learn about key aspects of corporate sustainability, from leadership and trends in sustainability to current regulations and opportunities.
