In line with corporate firms’ social awareness and development projects integrated into their core businesses, Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP) and Accenture in the Philippines recently signed a Memorandum of Agreement for the rehabilitation of the Marikina Watershed.

The project, which started this June, will include tree planting and other reforestation efforts to gradually counteract denudation that affects 5 hectares in the area. Accenture’s commitment to environmental stewardship is an essential part of its corporate citizenship agenda.
