What is Sustainable Development ?

The Bruntland Report (published in 1987), named after the President of the World Commission on Environment and Development (and who was also the Prime Minister of Norway) defined "sustainable development" as follows:

"development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs, and especially the most basic needs of the world's poor [...]."

A company or organisation makes a commitment to sustainable development when, for each decision taken, they consider the possible impacts this decision may have on the environment, staff, society and economy.”

For each decision, the potential impact on the environment, staff, society and economy must be considered. This reasoning requires a review of operating methods and a more cross-functional and global approach to problems.
