ACTED Lebanon: A holistic approach to reducing and managing waste 

In 2017, ACTED identified that approximately 60-70% of its carbon footprint resulted from its supply chain. In line with its 3 Zero World vision – Zero Exclusion, Zero Carbon and Zero Poverty – ACTED looked for ways to introduce sustainability measures into procurement for office supplies and programs. This case study charts ACTED Lebanon's efforts to lower its carbon footprint while also reducing local pollution caused by the country's low waste management capacity.
