Building capabilities within our own organization and our suppliers' is important for sustainable improvements

We help suppliers improve their management of corporate responsibility (CR) issues by meeting with them and providing training, sharing examples of best practice from Nokia’s own operations or from other case studies. We help suppliers develop their own internal CR organization and embed CR within their business starting with a commitment from the top. We also work with Tier One suppliers to help them manage their own supply chains.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that training and capacity building amongst companies in the supply chain are important for driving sustainable improvements to support monitoring programs. Therefore, as part of the Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI) Supply Chain Working Group (SCWG), we actively participate in the Learning & Capability Building sub work group.
