The Sustainability Programme for Legal and Compliance Professionals

Creating a global network of inspiring legal and compliance professionals 

Grounded in a core belief that legal and compliance professionals can directly and positively affect the people they advise and the companies they represent, The Sustainability Programme for Legal and Compliance Professionals aims to create a cohort of inspiring legal and compliance leaders who will accelerate the sustainability transition.

Indeed, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues represent “the opportunity of the century” for the legal and compliance professions. The winners will be those who embrace ESG with creativity, conviction, and courage with respect to their business and professional activities, from decisions made to professional advice given. Today’s legal and compliance advisors must provide informed counsel that meets the demands of 21st century society and stakeholder capitalism. 

This flagship offering has been developed alongside INSEAD’s Hoffmann Global Institute for Business and Society (HGIBS) and its efforts to align the future of business with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
