COFICERT and CONSEIL RSE Form Strategic Partnership for ESG 1000 Certification

On February 12, 2025, COFICERT and CONSEIL RSE announced a strategic partnership to introduce the ESG 1000 certification in Ivory Coast. CONSEIL RSE, a consulting firm specializing in Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development, will collaborate with COFICERT, an international certification body, to deploy this standard.

The ESG 1000 standard, governed by the IGSF, aims to bolster non-financial governance. It helps organizations manage non-financial risks and commit to improved governance practices. This partnership will support Ivorian companies in upgrading their CSR systems and prepare them for ESG 1000 evaluation.

Conseil RSE sees this collaboration as pivotal for enhancing its services in Ivory Coast, aligning with sustainable growth goals. Cristian Mocanu of COFICERT highlights the value of this partnership in adapting to evolving stakeholder expectations. The ESG 1000 standard, thus, reinforces commitment to social responsibility.
