The initiative is open to all watch and jewellery players with a national or international footprint that commit to dedicating their resources and energy to continuous improvement on sustainable business topics, and to developing a vision of excellence for the industry, no matter their starting point, market segment or position in the value chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12008 lazyload\" width=\"483\" height=\"314\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02-450x293.jpg 450w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02-225x146.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/02-148x96.jpg 148w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 483px) 100vw, 483px\" \/><figcaption>Image courtesy: Kering<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Cyrille Vigneron, President and CEO of Cartier, said, \u201cAs the watch and jewellery sector relies on the earth\u2019s precious resources and people\u2019s know-how around the world within its value chains, the imperative to act together in creating a more positive impact has become ever clearer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt Kering, we believe that luxury is inseparable from the highest environmental and social standards, and that it is our responsibility, as leading luxury players, to initiate the changes that are needed to protect our planet. The changes we are fighting for are essential for the future not only of the planet but of our industry itself,\u201d said Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Palus, Group Managing Director of Kering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iris Van der Veken, Executive Director of RJC, shared her vision for the joint initiative, \u201cThe 2030 Agenda is about leaving no one behind. Business can be a force for positive change and impact by supporting a global economy that protects people, the planet and the natural systems that sustain us. Business as usual is no longer an option. The RJC is determined to help business be a force for that change through transformative partnerships.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While focusing on three thematic priorities \u2013 building climate resilience, preserving resources, and fostering inclusiveness, the initiative strongly commits to transparency with the requirement to report on progress on a regular basis. It will also support members in meeting growing expectations of stakeholders, including consumers, civil society, and regulators, of exemplary environmental, social and ethical practices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cartier, delegated by Richemont, and Kering, in partnership with the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), have come together to launch the Watch and Jewellery Initiative 2030, driven by a common conviction that the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and aspirations for a sustainable industry can only be achieved through collaborative initiatives.
