Human Sustainability
Community

Integrate our policies and
actions on human health,
agriculture and the environ-
ment to make sure that
they support each other.
Human health and environmental pro-
tection are two critical components of
sustainable development. To ensure that
our eorts in these areas are as cohesive
and productive as possible, we have
begun to develop a formal policy to coor-
dinate our human health, agriculture
and environment-related initiatives. In
2010, we championed a coordinated
approach within the World Economic
Forum (WEF) and, in partnership with
some of the world’s foremost thinkers
inthese key areas, called for govern-
ments and corporations to embrace an
integrated approach to sustainable
development and nutrition. In 2011 and
beyond, we will accelerate our eorts,
engaging our internal team of experts to
create an integrated framework for
company policies and practices that can
be used to reach our goal and to serve as
a basis for our Global Nutrition Group.

Invest in our business and
research and development to
expand our oerings of more
aordable, nutritionally
relevant products for under-
served and lower-income
communities.
We have strengthened our eorts to
introduce aordable nutrition and are
making strides to meet this long-term
goal. For example, we developed a plan
to launch aordable, fortified snacks
and biscuits in India to address iron-
deficiency anemia, with a pilot launch
scheduled for Andhra Pradesh in India
in 2011. Additionally, we are investing
in research to identify key nutrient-
dense staple crops that can be used in
locally produced nutritious foods
and snacks for sub-SaharanAfrica.

Expand PepsiCo Foundation
and PepsiCo corporate
contribution initiatives to
promote healthier communities,
including enhancing diet
and physical activity programs.
The PepsiCo Foundation is committed
to helping people with the greatest health
disparities achieve improved health and
nutrition through eective and sustain-
able programs. Through a combination
of Foundation grants and corporate
contributions, we increased our annual
investment from $4.2million in 2006 to
$4.7million in 2010. In the U.S., the
Foundation has contributed $2.5million
to the Healthy Weight Commitment
Foundation—a coalition of businesses,
nonprofit organizations and athletes
committed to reducing obesity by 2015.
The grant is being used for a public
education campaign for moms and kids,
and to implement a school-based
program. PepsiCo continued to support
the YMCA of the USA to improve the
health, nutrition and well-being of
underserved African-American and
Latino populations—a collaborative
program that has reached nearly
40,000people in 85 communities. The
Foundation’s strong partnership with
Save the Children has reached approxi-
mately 850,000 people in India and
Bangladesh to help improve health and
nutrition. And the Foundation’s part-
nership with the World Food Program
(WFP), which leverages PepsiCo’s sup-
ply chain expertise to improve the
WFP’s logistics eciency, will indi-
rectly benefit approximately 90million
people served by the program.
