CBI Sustainability Community
Helping business find practical solutions to become more sustainable
Every CBI member can benefit from joining the Community
Whether you are leading change in an official capacity as a sustainability professional, or are a CEO of a smaller firm passionate about embedding sustainability into your business, the community is valuable to you.
Our mission
The Sustainability Community brings together purpose-driven sustainability professionals and champions across businesses from different sectors, sizes, and regions to share best practices and problem-solve. Here, business helps business find practical solutions to deliver on their sustainability goals.
By joining the Community, a member pledges that the business they are representing is meeting or working towards the United Nations Race To Zero Campaign criteria, known as the Five 'Ps'.
