Our initiatives
Committed to biodiversity
It’s a fact: biodiversity is at risk right now. Yet our future depends on it.
This is why, at the Yves Rocher Foundation, we support women and men taking action to change the world.
We support women who work every day on projects that generate hope and foster solidarity.
By planting 100 million trees around the world, we, along with the planting community, are helping biodiversity to regain its rightful place.
We support committed photographers who use their perspective to bear witness to the state of our planet.
As a source of life, plants are our future, and the Foundation is committed to safeguarding the plant world.
At the Yves Rocher Foundation, we believe that individuals can change the world.By supporting projectsand sharing our vision, together we can take action for the future of our planet.
Jacques ROCHER
Tree planter and Honorary Chairman of the Yves Rocher Foundation.
