01. The Principle
Human health, environmental health and economic wellbeing are deeply connected.
Veritas is being designed around better health outcomes, prevention, digital health and workforce wellbeing. Campus Vert extends that thinking into the physical environment — bringing sustainable buildings, nature, responsible resource use, social infrastructure and corporate governance together within one connected campus.
The result is more than a location for healthcare. It is an environment designed to support people and organisations that are thinking differently about health, sustainability and long-term value.
Integrated healthcare, prevention and workforce wellbeing.
A campus pursuing net-zero outcomes across carbon, water, waste and ecology.
An ESG-focused environment designed for organisations pursuing sustainable growth.
A platform where healthcare, business, community and environmental objectives can reinforce one another.
02. Campus Vert
Campus Vert is a planned corporate office and integrated lifestyle campus in Mossel Bay on South Africa's Garden Route, combining workspace, recreation and nature to create healthier, more sustainable places to work.
Its ambition extends beyond conventional property development. Campus Vert is being designed as an ecosystem for organisations seeking to advance Environmental, Social and Governance objectives while moving towards a lower-impact, more resilient future.
For Veritas, this creates an exceptional setting for the flagship Healthcare Complex — placing integrated healthcare and workforce wellbeing within the same environment in which people work, connect and live.
Future-focused corporate environments designed for modern organisations.
Healthcare, wellness, sport, healthy food and nature integrated into the wider campus vision.
Biophilic landscapes, biodiversity and outdoor spaces designed around people and place.
A strategic Garden Route location designed to support local, national and international organisations.
Campus Vert is brought to you by Saint Blaize, an economic development organisation focused on sustainable progress.

For companies operating nationally and internationally, Environmental, Social and Governance considerations are increasingly embedded in how organisations think about property, people, supply chains, investment, resilience and long-term value.
Campus Vert has been conceived specifically as an ESG-focused environment for organisations pursuing these objectives. Its vision is to help sustainability-minded businesses advance their ESG and net-zero ambitions while supporting alignment with the global 1.5°C climate objective associated with the Paris Agreement.
Veritas adds another important dimension to that proposition: health.
By locating integrated healthcare, preventative medicine, digital health and workforce wellbeing within Campus Vert, Veritas can help corporate partners address the human and social dimensions of sustainable business alongside the environmental advantages of the wider campus.
E — Environmental
Campus Vert's environmental strategy incorporates sustainable design, renewable energy, responsible water management, resource efficiency, biodiversity, biophilic design and sustainable mobility.
Its net-zero journey extends across four areas:
Carbon · Water · Waste · Ecology
S — Social
The social dimension combines workforce wellbeing, healthcare access, job creation, education, economic participation and community development.
Veritas strengthens this pillar by bringing integrated healthcare, prevention and workforce-health capability directly into the wider Campus Vert ecosystem.
Campus Vert's published plans also include wellness facilities, education, healthy food, recreation and social infrastructure intended to support occupant wellbeing.
G — Governance
Campus Vert places governance and institutional integrity alongside its environmental and social objectives.
Saint Blaize states that it applies a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption and has appointed ENS to develop an anti-corruption compliance programme aligned with ISO 37001, the international standard for anti-bribery management systems.
Veritas will maintain its own healthcare-specific responsibilities across clinical governance, patient safety, privacy, data protection and responsible use of technology.
04. Net-Zero
Campus Vert's net-zero ambition extends beyond carbon.
The campus is pursuing an integrated approach across carbon, water, waste and ecology, recognising that sustainable development requires more than reducing energy consumption alone.
01.
Highly energy-efficient buildings supported by renewable energy, with the ambition of achieving zero net annual carbon emissions or producing more energy than is used.
02.
Reduced water demand combined with harvesting, recycling and reuse to move towards balancing water consumption with water generated or recovered.
03.
Design and operational strategies focused on reducing, reusing and recovering waste streams while moving towards eliminating solid waste sent to landfill.
04.
Protecting ecological value through development while seeking to enhance the biodiversity and ecological value of the site over time.
Designed into the environment
Campus Vert's published sustainable-design strategy includes passive building principles, energy-efficient HVAC and lighting, renewable energy, energy and water metering, rainwater and greywater harvesting, waste separation, circular-economy principles, smart environmental monitoring and biodiversity-conscious landscaping.

Sustainable organisations are ultimately built around people.
For employers, ESG is not only about carbon, buildings and reporting. Employee health, wellbeing, access to healthcare, productivity, inclusion and long-term human capital are important components of organisational resilience and social impact.
This is where Veritas and Campus Vert become particularly complementary.
