●  Examples of good practice for these topics:
                         •   In general, for all topics, corporate self-regulation can help in corporate practice, e.g.
                             corporate codes of ethics, more advanced forms are ethical and social audits often

                             linked  to  environmental  audits,  corporate/corporate  responsibility.  Introduce  and
                             implement diversity, social responsibility, codes of ethics, etc.
                         •   Companies  set  up  projects,  join  organisations/associations  to  increase  corporate
                             responsibility.
                         •   Obtain certifications supporting the SDGs.
                             •   Use goods in accordance with Fairtrade standards. Fairtrade is trade based on

                                partnership.  The FAIRTRADE® mark indicates goods that have been produced
                                in  accordance  with  Fairtrade  standards.  This  means  that  strict  social,
                                environmental  and  economic  criteria  have  been  maintained  in  its  production.
                                Fairtrade stands for fairer trading conditions, respect for human and labour rights
                                and environmental friendliness. (see https://www.fairtrade.net/issue/sdgs).
                             •   For examlpe - the PURITY VISION® brand - uses Fair Trade raw materials for

                                its products (The first company in the Czech Republic and Slovakia to be certified
                                Fair  for  life.  The  company  cooperates  with  individual  farmers  in  Uganda,  the
                                Philippine  Islands  or  Bulgaria  to  help  raise  a  stable  income  for  socially
                                disadvantaged families).
                             •   For example, Tierra Verde uses input materials and raw materials that are as
                                ecological,  fair  and  organic  as  possible  (Ecogarantia,  PEFC  or  GOTS
                                certificates), thus contributing to a better and healthier world. Humanity and social

                                responsibility are an important part of the company's corporate values.
                             •   For  example,  Nespresso  works  in  line  with  B  Corp™  values,  contributing  to
                                sustainable  livelihoods,  supporting  farmers  and  helping  to  protect  the
                                environment.
                         •   Universities and schools are engaging with the SDGs, e.g. Codes of Ethics, Human

                             Resources  Strategy  For  Researchers  (HRS4R),  implementation  of  the  Code  of
                             Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers, etc.
                         •   Universities and schools focus their educational activities not only on their students,
                             but  also  on  the  general  public,  e.g.  Elearning  courses,  Third  Age  Universities,
                             courses  and  clubs  for  children,  organize  cultural,  educational  and  sports  events,
                             organize green projects.
