Since 2004, the Foundation has been supporting community-oriented, non-profit projects across the world.
It focuses on three areas of action:
- Development aid and humanitarian emergencies;
- Social inclusion through work and social links;
- Environmental conservation and biodiversity.
Its operating approach is grounded in:
- Strong personal commitment by Veolia employees (volunteers and sponsors);
- Construction of high-quality partnerships;
- The search for innovation by encouraging creation of high-impact and replicable models.
The Foundation supports a limited selection of projects on a medium or long-term basis. All these projects are led by previously identified partners and sponsored by employees. It does not therefore consider projects submitted directly outside this framework.
