Stakeholder engagement

To understand sustainability issues related to our industry and our company more clearly as well as improve our programmes, we proactively engage stakeholders and establish partnerships with a diverse set of experts and organisations.

Our key stakeholder groups include suppliers, customers, employees, governments, multilateral institutions, NGOs, industry organisations and investors. We also participate in business networks that allow us to have open dialogues with cross-industry players on specific issues.
