sustainability news

At Body and Soul we are aware of the impact of the activities of our DMCs and encourage them to participate in initiatives to support environmental care, social responsibility and community empowerment.

For us it is important that we and our DMCs expand their horizon and possibilities of people and the planet.

Our DMCs focus on great and proper sustainable projects.

Sustainability Body and Soul DMCs & Body and Soul


Community Projects

Many of our DMCs focus on community projects with strategies to strengthen the local communities. 

There is a strong focus on support activities to enable them to strengthen the overall community and to make life better for locals.

This future vision allows further growth for the society as a whole to reap the fruits.

Women Empowerment

Women play a crucial role in economic development. Our DMCs and us encourage women empowerment.

We all work towards enabling women to gain education, exposure and experience to find paths that bring them a proper income.


Environmental Protection and Waste Management

We strongly value environmental protection as a big part of our sustainability practices.

We apply the waste policy planning and controls that seek to minimise and mitigate the impacts on the environment by reducing, reusing and recycling of materials.

We seek, maintain, and incorporate awareness as well as sustainable practices among our DMCs, our team and the communities they serve.

Ranging from waste management education to clean up exercises, our DMCs move in the direction of conservation and ecosystem safeguarding.

Working Together Towards Sustainable Goals

Sustainability is an effort that involves all of our DMCs, in this context, it is a challenge.

That is why we seek for solutions and push our DMCs to consider the environment and what we can do for our world. 

The DMCs work hand in hand with the communities, state and international partners to achieve impact.

When we pool together expertise, equipment and other resources we have common practices that lead to best results for innovation and sustainability throughout the organization.

Accountability and impact of performance measurement are key to our strategy in executing sustainability.

Imagine a world where women contribute a fair share of leadership roles, communities are robust with the right support and there are care systems in place whilst the environment itself continues to prosper.

So come on board and let us make this world a better place.
