The Committee’s missions are to conduct research and make recommendations to define WT’s sustainability agenda that is outcomes-based and is in line with the WT Sustainability Strategy; make recommendations to support WT’s commitment to incorporate sustainability principles and practices into WT’s decision-making process and day-to-day operations; and enhance WT’s integrity, inclusivity, transparency, and accountability at every level.
The Committee’s objectives are to work together with the WT Planning Department, the Sustainability Consultant, and the cross-departmental Sustainability Working Group (SWG) on the implementation of the WT Sustainability Strategy; identify case studies and select the candidates for the Sustainability Awards organised every year based on the WT Sustainability Survey; study the best practices of other International Federations (IFs) and adopt into WT’s program, if applicable; establish networks and share expertise to contribute to the progress of the WT Sustainability Strategy; act as WT Sustainability Ambassadors by promoting awareness and action around sustainability issues at all levels; and report to the Council Meeting and/or General Assembly on the progress of the Committee.
