On 30 September, ALMEDINA welcomed Sofia Gouveia Pereira (Managing Partner) and the organisers of the ESG - Environmental, Social & Governance Collection of Legislation (partners Manuel Gouveia Pereira and Francisco Rodrigues Rocha and associate Rita Sousa Carlos) for the presentation session of this Collection, published by Almedina.
As Sofia Gouveia Pereira said, “GPA Law Firm has long chosen sustainability as one of the guiding pillars of its activity and the way it relates to clients and other stakeholders. In the firm's own management, through the internal GPA Sustainable Impact project, by analysing metrics that allow us to assess our environmental impact with a view to minimising our environmental and carbon footprint, and in the range of legal services that we have been making available to our clients, accompanying them on their sustainability journey. It is our mission to contribute to clarifying the challenges of ESG, driven by our Environment, Climate and ESG Areas, provoking society, raising questions with the competent authorities and calling on all market players and agents, which naturally includes our Clients. The publication of a Collection of Legislation on this subject was yet another initiative that our Lawyers undertook in this context.”
