Dynamic DSF members meeting

The second DSF members meeting was held in Belfast on 29^th October 2017.

Over 50 members from 29 organizations and 15 different countries shared their sustainability efforts and challenges in delivering targeted continuous improvement programs under the DSF commitments. Importantly the meeting was designed in such a way that all members could share how they had dealt with the challenges in different geographies and markets.

There were presentations from members on:

• Establishing and undertaking a materiality analysis
• Forming and maintaining multi-stakeholder management groups
• Insights on aggregation from two the DSF’s five Aggregators, the US and Australia, were also provided

The day focused on membership interaction with members who had the opportunity to network with colleagues in a full day’s activities culminating with the members having the opportunity to challenge members of both the DSF Governance and also the multi-stakeholder Advisory Group.

It was agreed by those present that a two-day workshop should be planned for the spring of 2018 to build on the success of this meeting.  This will be in addition to the normal annual meeting held in tandem with the IDF annual conference.

All the presentations from the day are available for members on the DSF Extranet.
