Young Aroa from Portugal knows how to raise awareness for the environment. The daughter of a Daiichi Sankyo employee received the “Award of Achievement” at our annual “Global Environmental Contest”. Her award winning drawing shows a “tidy fairy” and promotes recycling with a magical touch.
We at Daiichi Sankyo want to protect our environment and we have moved an important step forward. From awareness to action.
