⁄ A DECISIVE STAGE
IN OUR
COMMITMENT
SARA RAVELLA
EXECUTIVE VICE-PRESIDENT
COMMUNICATION,
SUSTAINABILITY AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS
How would you describe
2013?
For L’Oréal, 2013 was a major
year in terms of corporate
responsibility. The cornerstone
of this effort was the launch of
our “Sharing Beauty With All”
programme, with our new
commitments for 2020. This is
atangible expression of our
strong ambition: to make even
more progress in our
environmental and social
initiatives. Within the company,
we have also been inspired
bystrong unifying projects,
likeCitizen Day, when some
20,000group employees
volunteered tospend one day
helping associations.
Agreatshow ofsolidarity!
“For Women in Science”
celebrated its 15th
anniversary in 2013.
Where does this
programme stand today?
We are very proud of this
programme in partnership
with UNESCO. Providing
support to women scientists
with high potential at a crucial
moment in their careers,
whileensuring that they gain
recognition from their peers,
isdecisive. This global
mobilisation is our response
tothe fact that there are still
not enough women rising to
posts of responsibility in the
world of science. Since the
start of the programme,
“ForWomen in Science”
awards have acclaimed
thework of 77 exceptional
scientists worldwide, creating
successful role models for
theyounger generations.
What links are there
between the “beauty for
all” mission and CSR?
We at L’Oréal are convinced
that beauty has a genuine
social utility. Through
philanthropy, the L’Oréal
Foundation rolls out projects
that forge links between
beauty and social integration.
But as the market leader,
wehave a responsibility to go
further, ensure that all our
stakeholders share in our
success, and thus make the
world a more beautiful place.
