ESG Strategy

Materiality

In order to actively listen to our stakeholder groups and ensure a proper direction for our business model, we revisit our sustainability materiality matrix every two years to track and anticipate major global ESG trends. The process involves Raízen’s leadership, customers, investors/shareholders, employees, specialists, unions, the press, the government, and others stakeholders. The last process was conducted in 2021, where seven material themes were identified:

 

Strategic Sustainability Plan

Motivated to be a reference in sustainability for the sectors in which we operate, we have structured a robust Strategic Sustainability Plan, composed of ambitions, indicators and several initiatives for each of the strategic sustainability themes. The plan guides us in an objective and organized manner in our quest to fulfill our public commitments.

 

Public Commitments

With the goal of making clear our commitment to the positive impact of our business, operations, products, and services, as well as to encourage our business partners and links in our value chain to evolve their sustainability ambitions, we have taken on and published our public commitments related to 15 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations’ Agenda 2030. These commitments strongly support us in reshaping the future of energy through the development of high-value solutions for our key stakeholders. They are:

Climate Change and Management of Carbon Emission

Water Management
