Impact+

Launched in 2020, Impact+, our sustainable development strategy, brings together our objectives and actions. It is based on three pillars: People, Environment and Responsible Communication.

Positively impacting the world

Corporate and Social Responsibility lies at the heart of Havas’s strategy and actions. We have a key role to play in the profound transformation that society is undergoing. That is why we have been making tangible commitments with clear ambitions and measurable objectives since 2009. Every day, we encourage our agencies to use the influential power of their profession to drive positive changes in lifestyles and consumptions habits. We want to engage our clients, talent and suppliers in a responsible communication approach.

 

Our CSR strategy, Impact+, is structured around three pillars.

 

The first one is centered around people. It includes local and global initiatives dedicated to supporting our talent’s well-being and mental health, as well as promoting and ensuring diversity, equity and inclusion.
The second one concerns the environment. It is based on an ambitious decarbonization trajectory aligned with the Paris Agreement. In addition to achieving global carbon reduction targets, Havas Villages around the world are actively involved in local environmental initiatives based on raising awareness, training and taking concrete actions in the field.
Beyond our own reduction trajectory, we want to support our clients in their sustainable transformation. This is achieved by measuring the emissions associated with the production and distribution of our campaigns thanks to our global tool, Havas Carbon Impact calculator, and by offering more eco-friendly alternatives.

 

Finally, responsible communication lies at the heart of our third pillar. We are doing everything we can to bring about positive changes in behaviours and promote new narratives around lifestyles.
"

Our method: putting creativity at the service of sustainability.
