Dominique serves as Deputy Chief Sustainability Officer at Solvay, where he has more than 30 years of experience at the company in roles involving business development and sustainability. In his current position, Dominique leads Solvay’s sustainability efforts and ensures that sustainability is embedded in the company’s key business decisions. Multinational chemical company Solvay became a WHC member in 2021, complementing the company’s One Planet ambition of meeting ten sustainability-related targets by 2030. Solvay’s Paulínia site in São Paulo, Brazil, is the first chemical site in Brazil to earn WHC Certification at the gold level, a standard that recognizes excellence in the program’s forest and wetlands restoration efforts as well as community engagement and educational opportunities. WHC has supported Solvay’s internal efforts to involve employees in corporate conservation projects by developing resources that guide the implementation of various nature projects across Solvay sites. “It’s an honor to join WHC’s Board of Directors,” says Dominique, “and to be a part of the integral work WHC is doing across industries to support companies on their nature-positive journey. I am excited for this opportunity to use my expertise in corporate sustainability to support the work of WHC’s members and partners at the intersections of business and biodiversity.” Says Margaret O’Gorman, President, WHC, “We are pleased to welcome Dominique to the WHC Board. His dual commitments to sustainable practices and business development make him an invaluable addition, and we look forward to working with Dominique to further WHC’s mission of achieving business wins for nature.” The full WHC Board of Directors is as follows: Laurie Davies Adams, Director of Programs, Pollinator Partnership Dominique Debecker, Deputy Chief Sustainability Officer, Solvay Delf Bintakies, VP Sustainability, Safety, Health & Environment, Bayer Bill Brady, Independent Consultant William Cobb, Vice President, Chief Sustainability Officer, Freeport-McMoRan, Inc.
