Since 2015, CJ has been committed to the restoration of La Citadelle project through the Currimjee Foundation, with the support of the NGO Friends of the Environment. The primary goal of this project is to rehabilitate the vegetation on the northern flanks of the Citadel by undertaking active ecological restoration efforts. This initiative aims to re-establish the native dry forest that once thrived prior to deforestation and to restore the forest's ecosystem services. The project also helps increase the carbon sink capacity of Mauritius to mitigate climate change and also attenuate forest fires which are frequent in the region. This project is in alignment with the group's sustainability vision, focusing on the preservation of our ecosystems and addressing climate change. To date, nearly 12,000 plants, representing over 30 different species, have been planted, with impressive survival rates indicating successful outcomes. Beyond financial contributions, CJ also provides manpower, with employees actively participating in various activities throughout the year to support this significant environmental endeavor.
