2005 ANNUAL REPORT - Renault

Sustainable development
In 2001, Renault joined the UN Global Compact
and in 2003 followed this up with membership
of the Forum des Amis du Pacte Mondial in France,
an association dedicated to the promotion of the Global
Compact's principles and recruitment of new companies
to extend the network.
Renault also adheres to OECD principles of corporate
governance and the International Labor Organization's
Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights
at Work. It applies Global Reporting Initiative indicators
to assess its environmental standards, labor practices
and societal performance.
Other organizations with Renault's support include
Airparif, which monitors air quality in Paris, Entreprise
pour l'Environnement, for which Renault is sponsoring
a sustainability prize to be awarded to a student
in 2006, and Comité 21, which promotes progress
towards the Agenda 21 goals adopted at the 1992 Earth
Summit in Rio. Renault is also a member of several
European and international business forums.
Rewarding the breadth of its commitments and
its pioneering role in a number of areas, Renault has
won high marks from non-financial rating agencies
and is a component of ethical stock market indices
including Aspi Eurozone, Ethical Euro and Ethibel
Excellence Sustainability Index.
Gravimetric filters used in the production
of particulate filters help to make them
more efficient.
