The We IMpact convoy

Achieving certification together - compact, digital, effective

With the We Impact Convoy, we offer a wide range of target groups a streamlined, fully supported solution for implementing We Impact Level 1 and for expanding EMAS to We Impact Level 2. The term “convoy” refers to multiple organizations moving forward together—with close support, engaging in dialogue with one another, and with a clear goal: successful certification under We Impact.

In just six months, you will go through all the steps towards certification in a small group - from the initial assessment to entry in the We Impact Register. The implementation is digital and practical, with room for individual work and professional support.

Who is the convoy suitable for?

The program is designed for organizations that want to systematically and effectively embed sustainability across all areas of their business—and benefit from guidance, peer exchange, and a clear roadmap.
It is particularly aimed at executives, sustainability officers, and professionals and managers in fields such as management, environment, procurement, HR, and communications.
No prior knowledge is required.
