We believe that we can create a better world by focusing on three key areas: improving Health and Wellbeing, reducing our Environmental Impact, and Enhancing Livelihoods. Because responsible business makes for good business, the USLP means our consumers are better off, the planet’s better off, and our business is better off.
By 2020 we’re aiming to help more than a billion people improve their Health and Wellbeing
Health and wellbeing is half physical, half mental—and many of our key brands are working hard to address both sides of the coin. Through the Dove Self-Esteem Project, we partner with amazing initiatives like Plan Canada, the National Eating Disorder Information Centre (NEDIC) and Ophea, to help spread a message of body-positivity to millions of young girls and women. And with our Knorr® Landmark Farms, we’re constantly creating new sustainable farming innovations that mean better ingredients, healthier food, and more sustainable agriculture for us all.
By 2030 we’re aiming to halve the environmental footprint of the making and use of our products
Reusing, recycling and reducing are our three favourite words when it comes to decreasing our Environmental Impact. By making all our packaging recyclable and using renewable energy in our factories we can hit our 2030 goal. And right now, over half our agricultural ingredients are sustainably sourced.
We’re on track to improve the livelihoods of millions by 2020
From promoting equal opportunities, like our Unstereotype initiative to smash negative gender stereotypes and use advertising as a force for good, to looking out for the little guy in our supply chain through training smallholder farmers and providing entrepreneurial opportunities, we’re doing our bit to Enhance Livelihoods around the world.
And simply by enjoying your favourite Unilever products, you’re already playing a massive part in making all this a reality. You can also go one step further and directly work with us via our Take Action initiative.
Together, we can work to do good for the next 100 years and beyond.
