About the programme
Course Overview
In today’s sustainability-driven business landscape, evaluating the environmental and social impact of supply chains is no longer optional—it’s a strategic necessity.
Companies are increasingly held accountable by governments, investors, and consumers to operate responsibly, reduce emissions, conserve resources, and uphold ethical labor practices across their supply networks. Measuring these impacts allows organizations to identify risks, improve transparency, and align operations with global sustainability standards such as ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance).
This 5-day workshop is designed to equip professionals with the tools and methodologies to assess, report, and improve the environmental and social footprint of their supply chains. Participants will explore life cycle analysis, ESG indicators, supplier audits, and sustainability reporting frameworks. Through hands-on exercises and real-world case studies, attendees will learn how to build responsible, transparent, and resilient supply chains that support long-term value creation and contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
