Sustainable development is at the heart of our responsibility as a company, and it makes a two fold demand on us.
First, it requires that we take into consideration all dimensions of the company?s operations: economic, social, societal, and environmental. This implies that we pay close attention to the expectations and concerns of all our partners: employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers, institutions, and civil society.
The other demand is that we define and address the sustainable development issues that are specific to Vivendi. From this point of view, Vivendi?s specific contribution to sustainable development relates to the impact a producer and distributor of content can have on society as a whole. With the digital revolution profoundly changing modes of consumption and distribution of content, we have identified three priority issues: promoting cultural diversity, sharing knowledge, and the protection of youth.
