For VANOC, sustainability means managing the social, economic and environmental impacts and opportunities of our Games to produce lasting benefits, locally and globally.

It also includes our commitment to achieving unprecedented Aboriginal participation in the planning and hosting of the Games.


Sustainability Performance Objectives

VANOC has established a set of six corporate-wide sustainability performance objectives. These objectives are based on bid commitments, best management practices of other Organizing Committees and leading sustainability firms, and input from sustainability experts, key partners and stakeholders.

Our sustainability performance objectives have been incorporated into all of our business systems. As a result, responsibility for our sustainability commitments and outcomes is distributed across the entire organization and reflected in the performance plan and compensation of VANOC employees.

Our Sustainability Performance Objectives:

  1. Accountability

  2. Environmental Stewardship and Impact Reduction

  3. Social Inclusion and Responsibility

  4. Aboriginal Participation and Collaboration

  5. Economic Benefits

  6. Sport for Sustainable Living

We’ve got many stories to share about how we’re meeting our Sustainability Performance Objectives. Visit Sustainability in Action to learn more.
