Sustainability in Healthcare

The healthcare and pharmaceutical sector is facing rapid, disruptive change as sustainability regulations become increasingly important, and worldwide health crises more prevalent. As the world continues to encounter significant medical challenges and opportunities, healthcare organisations across the world must keep pace and adapt.

Global pandemics from Ebola to COVID-19 have highlighted our societal vulnerabilities, but have also revealed our capacity to adapt and innovate to solve global crises and to harness the opportunities provided by such circumstances to transition to more sustainable practices. At Anthesis, we have seen many healthcare organisations rise to these opportunities with an understanding that the sector has the ability to profoundly influence a healthier, happier and more sustainable future for all.
