Citizenship

Given its operations, size and worldwide presence, Veolia Environnement is at the heart of today's major debates.

Global warming, issues of urban growth and access to essential services are concrete problems that Veolia Environnement teams face every day. In addition to its business operations, the company thus bears a particular responsibility - that of a key player, a partner in local development with expertise to offer.

Sustainable Development

The company is working to make sustainable development an ongoing, visible dimension of its operations.

The Veolia Environnement Foundation

The Foundation allows the company to organize its philanthropic commitments around three key priorities: outreach, employment promotion, the environment and quality of life.

The Institut Veolia Environnement

The Institut Veolia Environnement has offered a unique and independent tool supporting thought and dialogue that help the Company develop a future-oriented perspective on the planet's major challenges.

Health

Issues dealing with the links between health and the environment are central to Veolia Environment's operations and, thus, to its concerns. These issues are the responsibility of the Company's Health Department.

Awareness initiatives

Through creative educational activities, Veolia Environnement seeks to help children become aware that they hold the future of our planet in their hands.

Roland Jourdain partnership

From 2007-2009, Roland Jourdain will carry Veolia Environnement's colors and values across the world's oceans in an exclusive partnership linking sailing, nature and the environment.
