Our involvement in Vanuatu
Westpac was established in Vanuatu in 1971. Since then, our employees have been actively involved in the community in partnerships with various organisations.
In recent times, Westpac has been involved in a variety of sponsorships and community-based initiatives. These include
- 2010 Environment Artwork Competition (Primary level)
- Clean up Campaign
- Westpac Pikinini cricket league
- Vanuatu Netball
- Vanuatu Football Referees
- Financial First Steps Workshops for workforces, community and schools
- Vanuatu Hotels & Resorts Association Awards
We recently launched Financial First Steps - our program to improve financial literacy for school students and community groups. The program teaches basic money management and budgeting skills in a workshop environment.
We are also members of or signatories to a number of multi-stakeholder and international organisations and agreements dedicated to raising corporate responsibility performance.
