Our activities
Environmental Transition
Faced with the current environmental and social emergencies, Groupe SOS is committed to finding new solutions that build a sustainable world. The organization defends the concept of human ecology, which harmonises human life with the environment, without one taking precedence over the other.
The ambition in the age of scarcity is to do better with less. Groupe SOS wants to make green jobs into levers for work inclusion, while preventing the environmental transition from becoming an additional factor of exclusion.
