OUR HISTORY
Our mission
EcoVisuel was founded in 2010, when the Swiss Confederation adopted Agenda 21.
Our main objective is to promote responsible communication as a means to achieve sustainable development. We encourage responsible ways of communication through our agency’s offer of services as well as through conferences, workshops and other actions aimed at raising awareness. We are committed, together with our partners, to bringing a significant positive change to society.
l'Agenda 21
Agenda 21 is a global action plan for the 21st century, signed by 178 heads of state during the UN Earth Summit of Rio de Janeiro in 1992.
Agenda 21 outlined different objectives related to the environment such as reducing global warming, the protection of biodiversity, the empowerment of communities, strengthening cooperation, promoting a dignified standard of life and encouraging sustainable modes of production and consumption.
MyClimate Label
Following to the principle “avoid, reduce, compensate”, EcoVisuel remedies its emissions by supporting carbon offset projects.
EcoVisuel’s activity contributes to climate protection. CO2 emissions that are not immediately reduced are offset by supporting projects of the Swiss Foundation MyClimate. As well as reducing CO2 emissions, the projects supported by EcoVisuel help to preserve the Jura forest and create a habitat for endangered species such as the Bacchantes, the Alpine Rosalie and wildcats.
