The Grenelle de l’Environnement was a multi-stakeholder dialogue initiated by the French government in 2007 to define key points of public policy on environmental and sustainable development. It brought together representatives from national and local governments, industry, labor unions, professional associations, and non-governmental organizations to collaboratively develop a comprehensive action plan addressing environmental issues.

The Grenelle process led to the adoption of two major legislative acts:(dlapiperrealworld.com)

• Grenelle I Law (2009): Set the framework for France's environmental policy, emphasizing the need for sustainable development across various sectors.

• Grenelle II Law (2010): Implemented specific measures, including improving the energy performance of buildings, promoting renewable energy, and enhancing biodiversity conservation. (dlapiperrealworld.com)

One notable outcome was the establishment of the Trame verte et bleue (Green and Blue Infrastructure), a network aimed at maintaining and restoring ecological corridors to ensure the survival of wildlife species and the preservation of natural habitats. (trameverteetbleue.fr)

While not exclusively focused on ICH, the Grenelle's emphasis on integrating environmental considerations into various sectors, including culture, has influenced policies that support the sustainable management of cultural heritage sites.
