World Environment Day (WED) is the United Nations’ most important day for encouraging worldwide awareness and action for the protection of our environment. Since it began in 1974, it has grown to become a global platform for public outreach that is widely celebrated in over 100 countries and the Republic of Congo’s Minister of Forests, Economy, Sustainable Development and Environment, Mrs Rosalie Matondo, marked this special day with a visit to the five Brazzaville Districts’ markets: Ouenze, Talangai, Ngambio, Bourreau and Poto-poto.
Averda is delighted to announce that three of our clients – Defy Appliances, Toyota South Africa Manufacturing, and Hirt & Carter South Africa – were recognised for their achievements practising effective waste management and sustainability initiatives in the KwaZulu-Natal province.
Nita Ramlutchman, Business Development Director at Averda, speaks about Averda’s continued efforts in South Africa to manage waste through sustainable solutions and helping companies achieve circularity by employing new technologies and innovations.
The IFC - International Finance Corporation has provided Averda with a $30 million loan to support sustainable waste management in the Middle East and Africa.
