Partnering for a better future with the University of Georgia
Our Sustainable Development Excellence program (SDX) is a training initiative to help employees grow their expertise in sustainability. The program includes sections on the environment, animal and human health, inclusive workplace culture and corporate critical thinking. To help co-create the curriculum, we turned to our long-standing partners, the University of Georgia and their world-class faculty specializing in climate change, health equity, government affairs and other key sustainability topics.
We’ve long believed that partnering is more than just a one-time deal. Our approach is to build enduring, genuine relationships, and our decades-long alliance with the University of Georgia (UGA) includes many projects with its Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy Colleges. But our shared vision goes beyond the traditional model of scientific collaboration and the SDX program is just the latest example of this. Together with UGA’s expert educators, we’re embracing organizational and societal change to benefit our colleagues, communities, veterinarians, farmers, animals and their owners, and the planet.
