Recycling Batteries Initiative

Recycling batteries:

We agreed with a body licensed by the Ministry of Environment to collect batteries, and we encouraged employees to collect used batteries from their homes and put them in a special box for the batteries located in our reception, and then communicate with the competent authority to dispose of batteries in a way that is safe for the environment, and the company provides us with a certificate from their side.

Paper Reduction Initiative

Paper reduction initiative:

We conducted a study every six months in which we measure the percentage of employees printing papers and encourage employees to reduce paper printing because of its damage to the environment, and we also provided our employees laptops to make it easier for them to continue the work without the need to print paper.

Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) Workshop

Teacher Talal will deliver a workshop entitled “Education for Sustainable Development” to the department of Mathematic in the school. This workshop aims at enriching some of the mathematical problems by the sustainable development knowledge and issues. Climate Change, Food Security, Water Scarcity, and other important challenges can be reflected in Math lessons with an awesome level of creativity.

Planting and Recycling Boost

In our school The Royal Grammar School Guildford in Qatar, we are planting seeds in biodegradable pots. This is to help the children understand that we need to care for the planet and use more biodegradable resources to benefit sustainable companies and sustainable alternatives. Different year groups will be taking part in this activity from nursery right up to year six. The children will also be watching a sustainable world video before planting the seeds.

Awareness for Sustainability

We base our core Business Strategy around the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), placing our business model in line with a global imperative to ‘leave no one behind’. We have selected three goals on which we will focus our improvement initiatives between 2020 and 2025. These are the goals we consider to be most material both to our business strategy and activities, but also in relation to our stakeholders. These goals are A) Affordable and Clean Energy; B)Sustainable Cities and Communities; and C) Climate Action.
