As part of our responsibility to drive initiatives both internally and externally, we have created a Diversity & Inclusion Council for our European business. The Council focuses on four key pillars, each run by a senior leader who is passionate about the topic.
People and Workplace
The People and Workplace pillar strives to ensure that our company reflects the diversity of our consumers and that our workplace allows our employees to thrive. The pillar also focuses on broader initiatives and partnerships that benefit our various employee groups and foster inclusion.
Value Chain
The Value Chain pillar works to ensure that our Diversity & Inclusion efforts are reflected throughout our supplier and partner network. This includes the implementation of a supplier diversity program, which works with our existing suppliers to implement stronger diversity, equity and inclusion measures and look to source from more diverse suppliers, both existing and new.
Marketplace
The Marketplace pillar aims to make our brands—some of Europe’s best-loved beers such as Stella Artois, Budweiser, Corona, Beck’s and Leffe, which touch millions of people every day—agents of change in driving Diversity & Inclusion through advertising standards and powerful, consumer-facing campaigns.
Communities
The Communities pillar of our D&I Council looks to engage our communities on Diversity & Inclusion topics and foster strategic external partnerships in these areas.
