Abstract

In the development of their Corporate Social Responsibility programs, big French companies

have launched initiatives to promote diversity among their employees. In this study I focus on

diversity programs for French banlieues often defined as low-income areas populated by

mostly French of foreign descent or foreign immigrants reside. I will first analyze to what

extend French Diversity Programs are effective for specific areas named "banlieues". I will

also provide pragmatic and effective solutions to reduce inequality in those areas and increase

diversity in French companies. I want to provide French companies and government ideas and

recommendations for effective diversity programs. To conlude I will explain that to achieve

development, French banlieues need social justice.

Key words: diversity, banlieue, social, corporate social responsibilities, equality of

opportunities
