February, 2023 – Curitiba, Brazil
From the very onset of our partnership with the Associação de Recicladores e Catadores Automores (ACA) in Curitiba, Brazil, we've been driven by a shared commitment to create a positive change in our value chain. Today, we are excited to share the remarkable journey we've embarked on together, one that underlines the significance of supporting every stakeholder in our ecosystem, especially the small recyclers and waste collectors, and how it aligns with Sustainable Development Goals 8, 1, and 10.
Our financial contribution
Our journey began with a humble initial donation. However, our dedication knew no bounds. In February, we joined forces with our suppliers, harnessing the collective power of our value chain. Together, we raised additional support that became the lifeline for the ACA. This collective effort allowed us to not only sustain the association's warehouse, but also empower 20 families to pursue their dreams, fostering economic stability and self-reliance.
The power of our value chain
At the heart of this transformational journey lies our suppliers, who have played an integral role. Through regular communication, we've kept them informed about the impact of their contributions, highlighting the real-world changes they are helping to bring about. This transparency has built a strong bond of trust, further motivating them to stand by us as we continue our mission to make a profound and lasting difference.
Contribution to the sustainable development goals
SDG 1 No Poverty: By supporting ACA and the 20 families it represents, we help create economic stability for these families, reducing their vulnerability to poverty.
SDG 8 Decent Work and Economic Growth: ACA's operations empower people with sustainable livelihoods and access to decent work.
SDG 10 Reduced Inequality: Our initiative includes small recyclers and waste collectors, often marginalised and vulnerable groups. By providing them with support and opportunities, we are actively working to reduce the inequalities they face in terms of economic access and participation.
Together, we are forging a path toward a more sustainable and supportive future, one that supports all stakeholders in our value chain. Let’s make it happen!
