Grande Distribution et RSE : Comprendre et Agir
La grande distribution, de par son rôle central dans nos sociétés de consommation, a une empreinte impressionnante, un impact massif sur l’Homme et sur la planète. Impact massif quand on parle d’émissions de GES, de plastique ou d’emballage, empreinte massive quand on parle de préservation ou de restauration de la biodiversité, impact massif quand on parle de l’emploi ou de la santé des populations. Aussi la grande distribution a une responsabilité majeure quand on traite de RSE. Elle est d’ailleurs engagée depuis un bon moment sur les chapitres que je viens d’évoquer. Très fortement sur certains, un peu moins sur d’autres. C’est tout l’objet de ce MOOC "Répondre aux enjeux RSE de la Grande Distribution". A travers ce MOOC, vous comprendrez ce que sont les réels enjeux de transformation de la grande distribution au chapitre de la RSE, et vous saurez analyser ce que certaines enseignes font de bien, de moins bien ou de pas assez vite. Puis vous pourrez évaluer le rôle des parties prenantes, c’est-à-dire les Etats, les consommateurs, les ONG etc... Ce MOOC vous aidera à imaginer ce que seront les défis de la Grande distribution demain et vous permettra d’anticiper sur ce qui sera un des éléments de différenciation des enseignes dans un futur proche: le service du bien commun.
