In April, Garrett Romania collaborated with the “Act for Tomorrow” NGO to organize the second tree planting event. Over 70 colleagues from Pipera and Bucharest Plant joined the collective action under clear skies, armed with shovels and determination. The initiative took place in the picturesque countryside, an hour away from Bucharest, concluding with remarkable results – 2,400 trees planted. We want to congratulate everyone involved in the Garrett Romania WeCare4 Tree Planting Event! #WeCare4 #GarrettMotion

International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples 2024 In an era where globalisation and technological advancement often overshadow local cultures, the significance of indigenous communities cannot be understated. These groups, with their rich histories, unique languages, and age-old wisdom about sustainable living hold invaluable knowledge for our future. Recognising this potential, Bóthar works collaboratively with indigenous peoples around the world to foster empowerment, sustainable development, and mutual respect. Bóthar focuses on creating partnerships that harness the strengths of indigenous communities while respecting their cultural identities. Bóthar works hand-in-hand with indigenous groups to understand their needs, aspirations, and the challenges they face, ensuring that initiatives are culturally sensitive and community-driven. This is crucial, as indigenous communities often have their own solutions to the challenges they face, rooted in centuries of experience and adaptation. Recognising that knowledge is power, Bóthar invests in training programs that enhance the skills of communities. These programmes are designed to be relevant and empower people; enabling them to learn about sustainable agriculture, legal rights, and environmental stewardship. This knowledge not only uplifts individuals but also raises confidence and agency within the community. Bóthar helps create income-generating opportunities that are respectful of cultural traditions.These initiatives have shown that economic development does not have to come at the cost of cultural erosion. Through advocacy efforts, Bóthar raises awareness about the rights and challenges faced by indigenous peoples. By showcasing success stories and amplifying indigenous voices, the organisation seeks to challenge stereotypes and misconceptions about these communities. By honouring traditional knowledge and fostering collaborative partnerships, Bóthar is helping to empower these communities. As we move towards a more inclusive and sustainable future, the path forward must be paved with respect, understanding, and a commitment to safeguarding the world's cultural diversity. #WeAreIndigenous #IndigenousPeoplesDay2024 #somosindígenas #PueblosIndígenas #autochtones Visit www.bothar.org

According to Baida Hercus, the vice president and founder of Free Tree Society, much of Malaysia is in need of green spaces. Born in Sabah, the half-Malaysian and half-Australian national carries much compassion for the living, which is ultimately what brought her to founding the charitable organization best known for handing out free seedlings and plants during environmental holidays. Read on to learn about Baida's impactful work, find out more about the state of conservation in Malaysia – and why green spaces are ultimately so much more fulfilling than concrete jungles.

Did you know? We are teamed up with a fantastic initiative that provides fresh fruit directly to workplaces, promoting healthy snacking for employees AND gives back to nature by planting trees. Fruitful Office Benelux not only delivers delicious seasonal produce but also contributes to a greener future. Through their reforestation programme, for every fruit box delivered, a tree is planted in Malawi via the Ripple Africa non-profit. Families in Malawi benefit from the fruit, wood, planting/growing training and sometimes generated income from the fruit, and we all benefit from the oxygen production from the trees. Our partnership in Q4 2023 resulted in 72 trees planted, but we've been teamed up with Fruitful Office since 2017 so the total count happily is much higher. It's a win-win for employee wellbeing and the environment, so if you want fresh fruit and environmental impact, you know where to go. #healthyworkplace #sustainability #corporatewellness

Hello, Help us provide 100,000 food portions for school children in KwaZulu Natal over the Christmas period. School meals are often the only daily source of nutrition for children in KwaZulu Natal, South Africa. When the school holidays come around many of these children do not receive the nutrition their growing bodies need. The Tshwane University of Technology (TUT; https://lnkd.in/ecYXAcPe ) runs a food distribution program in conjunction with the e’Pap Foundation NPC (https://lnkd.in/e_d89tS ) for the 21 schools of its Ndumo Community Project. The program not only reduces the children’s food insecurity, but also keeps the dining table a little less exotic by deterring poaching of rare and endangered species. Each child receives four packets of e’Pap (2kg) – an affordable fortified South African nutritional solution to combat malnutrition and helps meet UN SDG #2 (malnutrition). We have already raised the funds for 3 tons of e’Pap but we need at least 5 tons to match last year’s 100’000 food portions. Distribution starts on 27 November 2023. We would be very grateful if you can help us reach our target of ZAR 106,000 (EUR 5,350, USD5,770)? To donate, please send money to: Account holder: The e'Pap Foundation NPC; Bank: FNB; Acc: 62836620890, Code: 250655; Swift: FIRNZAJJ Wishing you a happy festive season ! Rose Kransdorff – e’Pap Foundation For more information on the Holiday Food Fund email: [email protected]. To receive sponsor photo feedback, include a WhatsApp number. ABOUT Ndumo Community Project is a community education project with a focus on conservation, co-existence with nature and self-preservation. The program includes 21 schools around the Ndumo Game Reserve in KwaZulu Natal (South Africa) – (https://lnkd.in/efceaZew). The program is conducted in classrooms and on field trips to protected areas such as Ndumo Game Reserve and Tembe Elephant Park to train young people to become Eco-Warriors or Youth Ambassadors. The goal is to help a community develop toward a better future by guiding, bird identification and development of environmental solutions. The project is implemented by HCI Foundation, Tshwane University of Technology (TUT), Department of Environment and Conservation – Dr Cheryl Ogilvie and the Eco students. https://lnkd.in/ej4Mg45N. The partnership between the e’Pap Foundation, TUT and the Ndumo Community Project has successfully distributed to vulnerable children in 21 schools in the Ndumo since 2007. Thank you for your contribution and we look forward to meeting you on your next safari in KwaZulu Natal introducing you to the project, our Eco-Warriors, and Youth Ambassadors.
