Action Sustainability

You can now pick up a solar panel with the weekly food shop. That’s good for net zero. It also means renewables are being bought faster than anyone can check where they came from, who mined the materials or who assembled them. On Thursday 5th November, Anna Cantwell, a Lead Consultant at Action Sustainability who specialises in human rights in supply chains, walks through the checks to build into a purchase or tender, even when you’re moving fast. Join live and we’ll send you our procurement guides afterwards.

If you’re in procurement, sustainability or supply chain, this webinar is designed for you. We’ll explain why many organisations miss human rights risks in renewables, show you how to spot them, and give you concise guidance you can forward to colleagues and suppliers so everyone starts asking the same smart questions.

Customer and regulatory expectations on renewables supply chains are tightening. Are you asking suppliers enough, or asking for the wrong things? In this online session, we’ll show you what due diligence to build into contracts, and why demanding ‘zero forced labour’ guarantees doesn’t work. Save your spot and get all three Responsible Renewables factsheets by email.

If you’re running tenders for solar, wind or batteries, you need a simple way to include human rights and sustainability checks.

Register now to get all three guides and start applying them immediately.

Anyone can buy solar panels off the shelf, but the reputational risk is yours if forced labour is found in the chain.

Register now and receive three concise factsheets to help you check suppliers quickly and consistently across all renewables purchases.

Chasing 200 suppliers for numbers half of them don't hold, on a deadline someone else set. That's where carbon programmes stall, and the figure you publish at the end carries a confidence level you'd rather not talk through in a board meeting. Lucy Picken and Dyanne van de Wijdeven on what good supplier data collection looks like in practice, and what to do with it once you've got it. 29th September, 11am, one hour.
