Sustainability

The Sustainability Committee acts as a platform for learning, sharing, networking and matching companies so that they can achieve their sustainability goals while contributing to NZ sustainability ambition. 

Objectives of the committee:

• To increase understanding of key sustainability and climate change issues in NZ
• To share practical approaches for how French companies are leveraging new opportunities for growth, performance, and competitiveness that also delivers positive environmental and social outcomes
• To be part of a forum convening NZ and French companies to advance the dialogue, collective action and business opportunities around sustainability and the circular economy
• To be inspired by sustainability leaders
• To network and be part of the sustainability and social ecosystem
• To promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace

What we aim to do:

• Offer events on sustainability and give access to knowledge to help all members towards becoming sustainable businesses
  • Annual sustainability forum
  • Offer Climate Fresk to our members
  • FNZCCI quarterly climate drinks 
  • Collaboration with other institutions (Time for the planet, Climate leader’s coalition/Sustainable Business Council, Green Building Council, ISC, Diversity Works, etc)
     
• Promote the expertise of our members in the field and foster collaborations with NZ entities
  • Site visits
  • Expert panel discussions
     
• Become a sustainable chamber by integrating sustainability into our operations (our people, our events)
