🌿 EMPOWERING SUSTAINABILITY: THE GREEN GROVE EXPERIENCE 🌿 From 4 to 6 October 2024 (Friday to Sunday), Malaysian Re had the privilege of hosting Sustainability, Expedition, and Engagement (S.E.E.) programme. During this event, our Green Grove team embarked on a Mangrove Tour, not only to learn about conservation but also to reconnect with nature and one another. Initially, the plan included mangrove planting, however due to unexpected weather conditions, the programme was adapted into a Mangrove Tour instead. Despite the change, the experience remained enriching, and the weather did not dampen the team’s spirits. The tour was more than just educational—it was eye-opening. We learned about the essential role mangroves play in protecting our coastlines, supporting biodiversity, and combating climate change. Mangroves are not just trees, they are the first line of defence against coastal erosion and serve as habitats for countless species. 🌱 Key Takeaways: Biodiversity at its Best – We witnessed first-hand how mangroves create a thriving ecosystem, supporting marine life, birds, monkeys, snakes and other wildlife. Mangroves protect against coastal damage, reminding us that preserving them is an investment in our future. Reconnecting as a Team – While exploring the vital role of mangroves in safeguarding our environment, we fostered connections beyond the traditional office setting. From learning how these ecosystems shield our coasts to sharing laughs and stories along the way, this expedition truly refreshed our team’s spirits. A Shared Commitment – This tour reinforced our commitment to sustainability, underscoring how every small action contributes to a larger environmental impact. We left with a renewed sense of responsibility to protect our planet and a deep appreciation for the natural beauty we often overlook. This trip not only deepened our connection to nature, but also strengthened our role in fostering a sustainable future. It was a refreshing and memorable experience that brought us closer together, both personally and professionally. Together, let us continue to nurture the world we live in, one tree at a time. #MalaysianRe #Reinsurance #S.E.E #SustainabilityEngagementExpedition #MangroveTour #GreenGrove #Sustainability

Today marks the 11th annual International Day of Forests. This year’s theme is “Forest and Innovation”. This day is closely associated with SDG 15: Life on Land, one in which Australia is still facing major challenges in achieving. Today I will be thinking about what Australia’s biggest challenges in promoting sustainable forest management, and whether there is anything I can do in my own life to positively contribute.

At Skretting, protecting the ocean is a priority. It's also important to ensure that fish stocks intended for direct or indirect human consumption are caught within clearly defined sustainable limits. That's why we have joined forces with Finance Earth and WWF, alongside other leading industry partners, in the launch of a Fishery Improvement Project (FIP) in Chile. "The only way we are going to have a meaningful impact across our seas and coastal communities is by working together across industry and supply chains," says Jorge Díaz, Sustainability Manager Skretting.
