Overview of what humanitarian organisations are doing to decarbonise their supply chains.
Best Practices on Environmental Sustainability Across the Humanitarian Supply Chain: The map highlights environmental sustainability initiatives across the supply chain implemented by humanitarian partners in various countries. These initiatives aim to inspire and guide other humanitarian actors in adopting similar practices. To contribute information or mapping from your country, or for any inquiries, please contact us.
