Udom Leelataweewud, M.D., Chief Sustainability Officer of Samitivej Hospitals and BNH Hospital and Deputy Director of Samitivej Srinakarin Hospital and Samitivej International Children’s Hospital, represented Samitivej in receiving recognition as a regional sustainable supplier/sustainable buyer under the SSAB (Sustainability Supply Alliance for Responsible Buyers) mechanism at the United Nations Climate & Sustainability Capital Forum (CSCAP). Samitivej was nominated by Sustainism (stnsm.org) on September 24, 2026.

CSCAP is an Asia-Pacific collaborative platform that brings together governments, producers, buyers, financial institutions and investors to accelerate sustainable consumption and production (SCP). It provides an opportunity for countries to present their visions, announce policies and commitments, discuss and develop frameworks for cooperation and share case studies and successful models for generating revenue and attracting investment through sustainability. The forum also tracks economic, human rights and environmental outcomes to expand cooperation into practical implementation at the regional level.

This recognition reflects Samitivej’s commitment to putting sustainability principles into practice across its operations, from hospital management and the efficient use of energy and resources to reducing environmental impact. Recognizing the connection between climate change and human health, Samitivej continues to care for both “the health of the people” and “the health of the planet,” helping create an environment that supports long-term health and quality of life.
