The sustainability of Alma Travel
For us, sustainability is much more than a simple word: it is a responsibility
In 1987 the World Commission on Environment and Development of the United Nations drafted a document, the Brundtland report (also known as “Our CommonFuture”), according to which Sustainable development is defined as: «that development which allows the satisfaction of the economic, environmental and social needs of current generations, without compromising the development of future generations". The European Union, following the signing of the Paris Agreement on the climate and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations, has decisively undertaken a path aimed at "engaging" policy interventions with Sustainability, especially with the objective of achieving the transition towards growth models that are attentive to environmental issues.
Nel 2015, i 193 paesi membri delle Nazioni Unite hanno definito un insieme di grandi priorità di sviluppo Sostenibile nell’ambito di un impegno rinnovato a mobilitare risorse intorno a una serie di obiettivi comuni, in sostituzione degli Obiettivi di sviluppo del millennio (MDG) in scadenza. A differenza di questi ultimi, i 17 Obiettivi di sviluppo Sostenibile (Sustainable Development Goals o SDGs) fanno esplicitamente appello alle Aziende nei paesi sviluppati e invia di sviluppo, affinché allineino le strategie aziendali con le priorità globali. Gli obiettivi di sviluppo sostenibile dell’ONU, offrono un valido supporto per destinare le attività aziendali, i relativi prodotti/servizi e gli investimenti a favore di un mondo più Sostenibile.
sustainability is a responsibility for us
A work philosophy based on ecology
We are the first to try to do our part for the environment, in our own small way. In our offices we only use hybrid company cars, we use LED lighting and we use printers with wax cartridges that do not produce waste. Attention to the environment also begins with small gestures!
What did Alma Travel do?
In maniera volontaria si è sottoposta ad uno strumento per dimostrare la Sua conformità ESG (Environmental Social Governance): la Certificazione della Sostenibilità.
La certificazione è effettuata a fronte di norme ISO applicabili
(universalmente accettate), che sono correlate agli aspetti di Sostenibilità ESG, che a sua volta sono correlati ai GRI Standards ed ai 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) delle Nazioni Unite.
Sustainability is much more than just a word: it is a responsibility. Alma Travel has today demonstrated that it has taken on the responsibility of being a Sustainable Travel Management Company.
With the Sustainability Certification Alma Travel has demonstrated that it is a COMPANY that has initiated Sustainability processes (ESG Rating AA-) and that its activity of providing travel agency services, tour operators, business travel and related organization of events and meetings corporate, it is objectively a Sustainable activity, which is good for the Shareholders, is good for others (employees, collaborators, suppliers, banks, investment funds, customers, consumers) and is good overall (for the community, for our country and to our Planet).
ESG certification (A+ rating)
La Vision dell’Alma Travel è chiara: c’è un’enorme opportunità con la Sostenibilità, perché i dati mostrano che le Aziende con migliori prestazioni ESG (Environmental Social Governance) fanno bene meglio delle altre.
