EKOSCAN

In the year 2003 Diocesanas integrated in the programme Ekoscan.

This tool, developed by the Public Society Ihobe, has the object that businesses and organizations, following an initials diagnosis, develop plans of action whose objective is the care of the Environment.

In December of this year Ihobe presented the Ekoscan Certificate to Diocesanas.

This positive evaluation on the part of Ihobe encourages us to certify ourselves according to the Ekoscan Standard. The objectives are:

• The obtaining of results for the improvement of environmental behaviour.

• The commitment of the management to the process for the improvement of environmental behaviour and the involvement of members of the educational community.

• The study of the environmental situation of the organization, including the economic and legal perspective, and the use of environmental indicators as a means of testing its evolution.

• Assuring the fulfilment for the corresponding environmental legislation.

• Imposition of a plan of improvement in each Diocesanas location.

• Setting-up of improvement teams for each location.

After being audited by AENOR the certificate was obtained in 2005.

In the year 2008, after the annual audit, Diocesanas is awarded the Ekoscan Plus Certificate that recognized the effort of improvement and commitment of the organization to the improvement of the environment.
