Every year, World Environment Day offers a global platform for inspiring positive change. It pushes for individuals to think about the way they consume; for businesses to develop greener models; for farmers and manufacturers to produce more sustainably; for governments to invest in repairing the environment; for educators to inspire students to take action; and for youth to build a greener future.
At IVI, we’re driven by a mission to protect the world’s most vulnerable people from vaccine-preventable diseases and equally committed to carrying out our work and research while doing as little harm to the environment as possible.
For World Environment Day 2021, IVI’s Ecommittee, a sub-group of IVI’s Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) Committee, planned several activities to encourage green education and action at headquarters and partnered up with our collaborators at project sites around the world to celebrate this year’s theme: Ecosystem Restoration.
