Since 2011: a sustainable research and philanthropy partnership with the Ouessant Brittany Black Bee Conservation Association based on two pillars: financial support and support for its research and communication activities.

Since 2015: a partnership with the French Observatory of Apidology (Observatoire Français d’Apidologie, also known as OFA), that helps to develop a stock of hives in Europe and promote the rare and important beekeeper profession.

In 2018: creation of Bee School, an awareness programme for primary school children led by company employees, that invites children to learn about the bee’s important role, while raising awareness about the need to protect them.

In 2020: launch of the UNESCO-MAB partnership, in collaboration with the OFA.  The beekeeping entrepreneurship programme “Women for Bees” is designed to train women beekeepers, create beekeeping affiliates across the world within UNESCO biosphere reserves - of which some form part of the House’s sustainable sourcing network - and measure pollination’s benefits. 

In 2020: inauguration of a partnership with the GoodPlanet Foundation, an organization created in 2005 by the internationally recognized ecologist and photographer, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, to raise awareness among young generations on the challenges surrounding bee protection.

In 2020: launch of a partnership with the ELYX Foundation. Co-founded by the artist Yacine Aït Kaci under the aegis of the FACE Foundation, the ELYX Foundation works to promote the values and principles of the United Nations. The ELYX character drawn by Yacine is the digital ambassador of the UN. Guerlain is thus continuing a collaboration initiated with the illustrator who imagined BEEZ, the emblem of the Bee School.
