♻️ International Day of Zero Waste Today is a reminder that waste is not just discarded — it’s a resource. By embracing the circular economy, we reduce what we take from nature and give materials a second life — keeping them out of landfills and in the loop. 💡🌿 At Goumbook, we've been working hard to reduce what we take from nature and what ends up in landfills. Here’s what that looks like: 🧼 2.6 tons of soap collected 🚬 4,964,521 cigarette butts collected 🏜️ 47.76 kg of waste removed during desert clean-ups 🍽️ 33,564.1 kg of food saved from going to landfill These numbers aren't just statistics — they're steps toward a circular future 🌱💚 Let’s continue to rethink waste, restore resources, and regenerate our planet. #ZeroWasteDay #CircularEconomy #WasteToValue #SustainableLiving #FromWasteToWorth #RethinkWaste #NatureDoesntWaste #LandfillDiversion #Goumbook #Changingmindsets #GreenFuture UNISOAP UAE, Fair Care, Save The Butts, Drop It, Eat It or Save It

Goumbook is a leading Social Enterprise dedicated to accelerating Sustainability and Climate Action in the UAE and beyond since 2009. We raise awareness, educate and engage companies and communities through dedicated programmes and campaigns. Today Goumbook manages different projects such as Give a Ghaf, the first tree planting program in the Middle East, Mangroves Matter, to encourage conservation and restoration of crucial ecosystems in partnership with the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment - MOCCAE; Drop It - Rethink Plastic, to help reduce single use plastics; Eat It or Save it, to drive awareness about food waste in partnership with UAE Food Bank, and Take a Breath, highlighting the need to monitor and improve indoor air quality, proposing solutions focused on human health, circular economy and nature based approaches. Take a Breath was recently endorsed by MOCCAE. In 2020, Goumbook was proud to conceptualise, and project manage Dubai Can, a campaign by H.H.Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai. More recently, Goumbook initiated its first regional programme, the MENAT Regenerative Agriculture Venture Programme, looking at solutions related to food systems, climate change mitigation & adaptation, carbon sequestration, soil health, water scarcity, desertification, biodiversity loss & food security. In June 2023, Goumbook launched the MENA Oceans Summit under the patronage of MOCCAE, and later in December, at COP28, the same Network in partnership with the UN to accelerate collaboration, partnerships and action for the oceans in the region. Our mission is to create a regional community focused on sustainability and environmental responsibility, uniting governments, scientists, businesses, youth and consumers. Don't miss our Forward Talks podcast launched in 2019 where we interview leaders and professionals who, through their work, entrepreneurship and commitment, promote positive impact and sustainability.

As Ramadan comes to an end, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the 9 incredible clients who joined our sustainable meal-packing events, helping us provide 3,600 balanced meals to local communities in need—mainly in labor camps—while engaging over 160 employees in meaningful action.

Participants deepen their understanding of food waste, food loss, and the stark contrast between food insecurity and global food production. 🌍 We produce enough food to feed 10 billion people—yet a third of the population remains food insecure. Our meal-packing experience runs all year long!

A heartfelt day of impact and connection 💚 Goumbook, together with UNISOAP UAE, joined the inspiring Happy Happy UAE team at Camp 2 in DIP to support their ongoing meal distribution efforts. Alongside nourishing meals, we had the opportunity to share our repurposed UNISOAP bars—sparking conversations around the circular economy and the importance of hygiene access. Moments like these remind us that real change begins with compassion and community. Grateful to be part of this initiative and to witness the joy shared through small, meaningful acts. #SustainabilityInAction #CircularEconomy #UniSoap #CommunityImpact #HygieneForAll #Goumbook #Changingmindsets
