A comfortable natural environment is a fundamental prerequisite for any human activity in any area. Projects of this kind contribute to maintaining biodiversity, fostering a responsible attitude to nature, and encouraging separate waste collection. Environmental projects bring together representatives of environmental organizations, enthusiasts, volunteers, and concerned citizens.
The level of culture in a city or region determines the quality of life there. SIBUR has been contributing to the development of the communities’ cultural environment, and the residents’ creative potential. It has also been making efforts to increase the city's appeal to tourists. Cultural projects have included various striking and memorable events, measures to support artistic groups, exchange of experience and training, as well as the development of new leisure and recreational opportunities for the public.
The Formula for Good Deeds program helps rally SIBUR’s employees and residents of the cities where SIBUR operates around common human values and encourages their involvement in joint volunteer projects that are important to local communities. These efforts help expand and grow the volunteering movement in Russia's regions and effect positive changes there.
A detailed list of sample project themes can be found in the document titled Focus Areas of the Formula for Good Deeds Program. Your project may not fit with these themes exactly, but it is essential that it falls within at least one of the program’s focus areas.
