CSR: CNES in action

CNES’s CSR Strategy and Environment and Quality Policies

CNES has crafted a CSR strategy to step up its sustainable development efforts.

This strategy is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out in the United Nations’ Agenda 2030, marking the agency’s strong commitment to reconciling the environment, society and governance.

Our five CSR commitments are closely monitored by our quality management, environment and development system, the first two elements of which are ISO 9001 and ISO 14001-certified.
