5 COMMITMENTS
FOR A SUSTAINABLE IT

ARE YOU LOOKING TO GET INVOLVED IN A SUSTAINABLE IT INITIATIVE ?

In a context of climate urgency linked to the need for social justice, Sustainable IT has become an international challenge in a few years. Awareness of the environmental and social impacts of digital technology has accelerated, requiring organisations to reassess their digital strategy.

Many organisations, both public (local authorities, administrations, etc.) and private (companies, associations, etc.), want to rethink their digital roadmap in order to create the conditions for a digital strategy that is sustainable for the planet and beneficial to all.

In this sense, the Sustainable IT Charter is a first step towards a more virtuous digital world.

The text of the charter summarises the commitments made by the signatory to move towards a more Sustainable IT approach. Although this approach is not subject to audit, it commits each signatory, in a public manner, to do everything possible to enter into a Sustainable IT approach.

Signing the Sustainable IT Charter allows the organisation to communicate internally and externally about its quality approach and to join a network of organisations that are pioneers in change.

L’INR a pour objet d’être un lieu de réflexion sur les trois enjeux clés du numérique responsable : la réduction de l’empreinte (économique, sociale et environnementale) du numérique, la capacité du numérique à réduire l’empreinte (économique, sociale et environnementale) de l’humanité, et la création de valeur durable / innovation responsable via le numérique pour réussir, l’e-inclusion de tous.

L’INR développe, dans l’intérêt de toutes et tous, une coopération interdisciplinaire étroite entre acteurs de la vie civile, de l’économie sociale et solidaire, enseignants, chercheurs, acteurs publics, privés et associatifs pour l’anticipation et l’appropriation des enjeux et des valeurs d’un numérique responsable.
Notre action est toujours guidée par les 3P : People, Planet, Prosperity. La Triple bottom Line nous rappelle que les organisations doivent penser leur organisation en fonction des enjeux sociaux et d’urgence climatique tout étant viable économiquement.
Un numérique responsable est, à nos yeux, un numérique capable de proposer des solutions/innovations soutenables pour la planète, éthiques et inclusives, c’est-à-dire qui respecte et inclut le plus grand nombre.
