Friday, July 5, 2024 AXA Hong Kong and Macau celebrated its annual “Week for Good 2024”, a global volunteer service campaign with a focus on sustainability. This year’s theme was water and the environment, aligning perfectly with World Environment Day on June 5th. Approximately 1,000 employees and financial consultants engaged in meaningful activities, including coastal cleanups and upcycling workshops.

These efforts not only raised awareness about the significance of clean water but also promoted the conservation of Hong Kong’s marine ecosystems. These initiatives underscore AXA’s commitment to its new climate strategy and efforts to tackle climate change and enhance initiatives for clean water and sanitation. Water is fundamental to human survival, and as the global population expands, fresh water is increasingly scarce.



Climate change has intensified this scarcity, triggering extreme weather events like floods, droughts, landslides, and hailstorms, which pose a growing threat to water resources. Remarkably, 90% of natural disasters are related to water or affect water resources. By 2030, the world could face a 40% shortfall in fresh water availability.

Addressing this crisis requires urgent educational initiatives to teach both present and future generations the importance of water conservation. Various programs aim to educate on marine conservation and emphasize the significance of water. From June 3 to June 14, AXA volunteers engaged in environmental workshops .
