🌞 Summer CSR Round-Up at Goumbook 🌱 As the summer comes to a close, we're excited to share a round-up of some of the incredible CSR activities that have taken place through Goumbook this season. From planting Ghaf seeds to engaging in climate awareness workshops, it’s been a season of growth, learning, and positive impact. TAQA Group Ghaf Seed Planting: Partnering with TAQA, we facilitated a Ghaf awareness session and seed planting activity for 20-30 students from Abu Dhabi schools. 🌳 TAQA Group Climate Fresk Workshop: Another collaboration with TAQA saw 35 students diving deep into climate change through an engaging and interactive workshop. 🌍 Liwa Ajman B-Conscious: At the 2024 Liwa Ajman Dates and Honey Festival, we introduced kids and adults to the importance of bees through a Honey tasting game and Beeswax candle making, sponsored by Ajman Tourism. 🐝 Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism Climate Fresk: Engaging 19 employees from Dubai Economy and Tourism, we facilitated a Climate Fresk Workshop, reinforcing the importance of climate action. 🌏 This summer has been all about making a difference, one activity at a time. A huge thank you to our sponsors and participants for their unwavering support. Together, we’re paving the way for a sustainable future! #Goumbook #ChangingMindsets #CSR #SummerRoundUp #Sustainability #ClimateAction #EnvironmentalAwareness #GhafTree #BConscious #CorporateResponsibility

Call out to companies in the UAE interested in #improvingindoorair in their offices and protecting the #health and #wellbeing of their employees. We are conducting a corporate study between September and November 2024 to assess indoor air in working spaces across the country under the umbrella of Take a Breath by Goumbook: a nationwide and sector wide awareness and educational initiative endorsed by the UAE وزارة التغير المناخي والبيئة Ministry of Climate Change and Environment and aligning with the National #AirQuality Agenda 2031. Reach out to [email protected] to learn more. #indoorairquality #publichealth #takeabreath #goumbook #changingmindsets
Did you know that indoor air quality significantly impacts employee health and productivity? A silent and invisible threat, poor air quality indoors can cause headaches, fatigue, respiratory issues, and decreased cognitive function. Research led by Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health shows that inadequate ventilation and higher levels of carbon dioxide and volatile organic compounds (VOCs – or airborne chemicals) indoors can individually reduce cognitive performance—e.g., a 500 μg/m3 increase in VOCs correlates with a 13% decline in cognitive scores. Green office environments with enhanced ventilation, reduced CO2, and lower VOC levels massively improve cognitive scores. To mark World WellBeing Week 2024, we encourage organisations to take action and prioritise their employees' heath and wellness. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we're focusing on improving indoor air quality in alignment with the UAE National Air Quality Agenda. Join our corporate study to monitor and enhance indoor air quality in offices nationwide. Contact us at ask@goumbook to learn more about how you can participate. #ImprovingIndoorAir #CorporateWellness #AirQuality #TakeaBreath #Goumbook

In celebration of World Mangrove Day, we are thrilled to announce that Goumbook received an award of recognition from the وزارة التغير المناخي والبيئة Ministry of Climate Change and Environment . This honour highlights our shared efforts and commitment towards the National Carbon Sequestration Project marking a significant milestone in our ongoing efforts to protect and restore vital mangrove ecosystems. Our deepest gratitude goes out to the incredible companies supporting us through the Trees Matter initiative. Your unwavering contributions are pivotal in helping the وزارة التغير المناخي والبيئة Ministry of Climate Change and Environment strive towards its bold target of planting 100 million mangroves by 2030. Thanks to the collective efforts of 60 dedicated companies and around 2,000 passionate participants, we have successfully planted almost 20,000 mangroves. Your dedication and hard work are truly inspirational. We are also grateful to our local partners and governmental entities such as Ajman Municipality & Planning Department and Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi (EAD) for their invaluable support, which has been instrumental in our success. Mangroves are vanishing 3 to 5 times faster than global forests, making their protection more critical than ever. This year's theme, "Raising awareness about mangroves and their importance as self-sustaining ecosystems," perfectly aligns with our mission. Thank you for being an essential part of this vital journey towards a sustainable and thriving future! #Goumbook #Treesmatter #changingmindsets #MOCCAE #NationalCarbonSequestrationProject
