As part of #PlanetaryHealthWeek, we organised a bring-and-share vegetarian breakfast competition, a fun way to promote healthy eating to protect our planet.
We also visited our on-site biogas plant, an innovative facility to advance our contribution to a healthier environment.

Chronic liver disease from hepatitis B is a leading cause of premature death in sub-Saharan Africa.
New research from @gndow & @maud_lemoine has found antiviral therapy can reduce related deaths. 🌍
On #WorldHepatitisDay, they call for urgent action 👇🏾
