At Gartner, we believe in making a positive impact within the local communities where our associates live and work. This July, our India offices embraced the spirit of sustainability with some fantastic initiatives aimed at reducing plastic usage and promoting eco-friendly practices.
Bag distribution: A step toward sustainability
Our Gartner Green India Team organized an inspiring event across all the Gartner India offices for a "Plastic-Free July." The event kicked off in Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore, and Gurgaon with discussions on the negative impacts of plastic and the importance of integrating eco-friendly options into our daily lives. It was a powerful reminder that such small changes can lead to significant environmental benefits.
Additionally, the team distributed eco-friendly bags to Gartner associates. The bags were crafted by differently-abled individuals from the NGO PURE India Trust. This initiative not only promoted the use of sustainable alternatives but also supported a meaningful cause.
Plant sapling distribution: Nurturing nature
Simultaneously, we held a free plant sapling distribution event in collaboration with the nonprofit organization Sawan Kirpal Ruhani Mission. Every Gartner associate in Gurgaon received a plant sapling to take home, with options ranging from roses and hibiscus to basil, aloe vera and more.
These events are part of the broader Gartner strategy to make a positive impact within our communities. By adopting sustainable practices and spreading awareness, we can collectively make a significant difference. It's about making conscious choices that benefit our planet and inspire others to do the same.
As we continue on this journey, let's keep the momentum going and strive for a greener, more sustainable future.
