Social Impact

We’re taking on some of the world’s most pressing challenges to build a healthier, more resilient world. With employees across some 100 countries, we are uniquely positioned to be a major driver of progress and impact. It’s what unites all of us.

Three pillars, one social impact strategy 

The world is moving fast. The climate crisis is also a health crisis and healthcare inequalities persist. We have reimagined a bold, sustainable approach to broaden our social impact and create healthier futures.

Environmental sustainability and resilience

The impact of climate change demands urgent action. We’re taking responsibility by reducing our carbon footprint and minimizing the environmental impact of our activities and products, but also looking for ways to strengthen health systems resilience to climate issues.
