The data are approved and transmitted by the NGOs, then consolidated by the brands via a digital tool.

It is the number of organisations supported by the Fund, the number of women directly supported by these organisations with the assistance of the Fund, and the budget in euros L’Oréal has allocated to the Fund since it was launched. This amount includes the costs associated with operating the Fund.
Data: data are collected by the organisations supported by the Fund which have used all or a portion of the budget allocated during the reference period. The Fund’s teams (within the Corporate Responsibility Department) consolidate the data.

This third party then shares the data and the audit reports with the Group. The other data are collected from the Departments concerned: Corporate Social Responsibility, Worldwide Product Safety Evaluation, Ethics, Risk and Compliance, and the L’Oréal Foundation.
