Sustainability is a broad topic, and for consumer healthcare company Perrigo it’s key to tap into those aspects of sustainability that matter most to their consumers. A crucial element of sustainability that has come more to the forefront over the past years is mental well-being. In fact, today, Perrigo is working actively on purposeful domains such as body positivity and mental well-being.

In this episode, we talk with Fleur D'Haenens, Global Category Lead Skincare at Perrigo, Tom Van Avondt, Director Consumer and Market Intelligence, also at Perrigo, and Joeri Van den Bergh, sustainability expert and Managing Partner at InSites Consulting.

Eve talks about the engagement challenges Nest is facing and how they try to solve those, while Dominika zooms in on what this means from a research perspective.
