Agropur commits to G7 Business for Inclusive Growth coalition
The coalition, to be launched in connection with the G7 Leaders' Summit in Biarritz, France, is sponsored by French President Emmanuel Macron, spearheaded by Danone and coordinated by OECD.
Agropur, Longueuil, Quebec, said it is among a coalition of 34 international companies that have committed to the G7 Business for Inclusive Growth (B4IG) coalition. The coalition, to be launched in connection with the G7 Leaders' Summit in Biarritz, France, is sponsored by French President Emmanuel Macron, spearheaded by Danone and coordinated by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
The companies are stepping up business action to advance human rights throughout their value chains, build inclusive workplaces and strengthen inclusion in their internal and external business ecosystems, Agropur said. In doing so, they will advance G7 government-led efforts to strengthen equality of opportunity, tackle regional disadvantages and fight gender discrimination.
