Aboitiz Group calls on Holistic Approach to transform EDSA into Clean, Green Thoroughfare

To support efforts in transforming EDSA into a calmer, cleaner and green thoroughfare, the Aboitiz Group showcased its best practices and highlighted the role that the private sector plays in addressing the prevailing issues that plague the national traffic corridor during the recent Green Edsa Movement (GEM) webinar hosted by the Management Association of the Philippines (MAP).

The virtual event brought together stakeholders from the government, private sector, and non-profit organizations to discuss action points on turning Metro Manila’s iconic highway into a thriving green, mobile green space.

“Transforming EDSA requires a holistic plan and we all have a part to play to help fulfill the mandate of the Green EDSA Movement and it is clear that we must all work together if we want to turn this into a reality,” said Aboitiz Equity Ventures Chief Reputation & Sustainability Officer Ginggay Hontiveros-Malvar. “But above all else, we must approach this with a different attitude and mindset grounded on sustainability and climate justice. It is imperative that our pursuit of economic development must not come at the expense of the planet.”
