Mapping sustainability priorities | SME Webinar Series Part 1

This is the first session of our four-part webinar series for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). SMEs are key drivers of sustainable development in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Yet many face distinct challenges in translating sustainability ambitions into action. This webinar series provides a practical and adaptable framework to support SMEs in embedding sustainability and the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact into their operations.

Acknowledging that sustainability is an ongoing journey - not a one-time fix - this series follows an interactive four-step cycle to help SMEs map their priorities, define a strategy, implement meaningful actions, and report progress effectively.​​ Each session features real-world examples, hands-on tools, and guidance tailored specifically to the SME context.

This first session helps SMEs identify and assess the environmental and social issues most relevant to their operations, stakeholders, and value chains. Learn how to conduct a materiality assessment and establish a clear picture of where your sustainability priorities lie. This foundational step sets the stage for focused and meaningful action.
