A diverse group of people of varying ages, ethnicities, and genders, including an individual in a wheelchair, stands outdoors, holding hands to form a circle. The scene radiates community, inclusion, and positive togetherness. The trees in the background and the grass beneath their feet suggest that they are in a park or a similar natural setting.

WOMEN IN CIRCULARITY

Beiersdorf has initiated a program that supports four recycling organizations in Argentina, Ghana, India and Kenya through a donation of €4 million. Those countries have been severely impacted by the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a major setback for female empowerment and exacerbated inequalities and threatening conditions. These organizations will be able to offer income and development opportunities for more than 1,600 women within the waste management sector, which will have a direct positive impact for their families and communities.
