1 Sustainable development , Social Responsibility And Contribution to Community report June 2016 THE SKEMA BUSINESS SCHOOL Sustainable development AND Social RESPONSIBILLITY POLICY 2 INTRODUCTION Since the merger in 2010, SKEMA has positioned itself on the Knowledge Economy.

2 Deeply respectful of Human Rights, SKEMA intends to contribute to the development of a more ethical and more responsible society. Sustainable development is therefore in its DNA: An international, multi-site, Global School integrated into its regions , its missions: Train Ethical and Responsible Managers, able to contribute to the Sustainable development and performance of their organizations by their ability to innovate, their technical skills, their interdisciplinary and international culture, etc.

3 , and its values: Multiculturalism and Diversity, Permanent Apprenticeship and Personal development , Entrepreneurial Spirit, Humanism and excellence. Highly involved in the economic, Social , cultural and environmental development of the regions in which it is located, SKEMA is developing partnerships, and works in close collaboration with its various stakeholders, companies, regional collectivities, academic organizations and a variety of professionals. A signatory of the Global Compact and the PRME, SKEMA acts for and in compliance with the principles on which she is engaged, and their action follows the guidelines of the 17 United Nation Sustainable development Goals, which offer an ambitious and shared vision of the world we want to see by 2030.

4 Since 2015, SKEMA has followed the FNEGE [French National Foundation for Education and Corporate Management] BSIS (BUSINESS IMPACT SURVEY) approach. This approach measures the regional impact of the school (economic, Social and environmental) and goes fully hand in hand with the Global Responsibility approach that demands liability, transparency and consideration of the needs of all our stakeholders (see BSIS Reports). SKEMA was awarded the BSIS Label in June 2016 .

5 The SKEMA Business School SD/CSR policy is interdisciplinary and is deployed across all its campuses with regard to their history, their background and to the socio-economic development of their regions and location. Consequently, the historic Sophia Antipolis campus is an exemplary ecological campus, an exception site where all flora is protected. Since 1996, an environmental policy has been in place, the first programmes have been dedicated, and the first SD report was drawn up in 2007.

6 The Lille Campus, highly involved through its directors in the economic and Social development of the region, has historically contributed to the integration of young people from underprivileged backgrounds, and in the creation of programmes for operational and management executives for regional companies. The positioning of our regional and international campuses in globally recognized centres of technology, along with their diversity is a source of richness and inspiration for preserving our ecosystems and the development of our actions in these areas.
