PRESENTATION
Information and experience sharing, experimentation, making propositions Since 1992, the non-profit organisation Orée brings companies and local authorities together so as to develop a joint reflection on their environmental impacts and, in particular, on environmental management and its practical implementation at the landscape level. One of the driving forces of this process lies in the help given to small and medium- sized enterprises (SMEs) to permanently integrate this parameter into their activities. Involving them in collective projects is a way to fulfil this task. Orée associates all the stakeholders in this process and more specifically environmental and consumer protection organisations, alongside key economic, public and institutional organisations. Orée and the environment: expertise for sustainable development A constructive place to hold dialogues and to operationalise actions with all stakeholders Information and support for the integration of environmental and social criteria in the decision-taking process while taking into account the economic constraints Involvement in the consultation process, respecting the differences of all stakeholders The legitimacy to make constructive propositions based on experimentation that of our members and other stakeholders involved in our collective projects, and the sharing of good practices Member representation, expression of their concerns and formulation of propositions at the institutional level
