Commitments
Working towards sustainable development involves going beyond our duty to comply with laws and regulations
governing our activities. It means understanding the trends and priorities of the population and adhering to
applicable global conventions and commitments in each operating location, such as climate, biodiversity, and
human rights issues. It also means ensuring the proper management of the socio-environmental risks of our
operations.

RESPONSIBILITY
Through Socioenvironmental Responsibility, we reaffirm our commitment to sustainable development, guiding our
business to generate positive results for the communities where we operate and society at large. This
commitment fosters socioenvironmental and economic development in a balanced, responsible, and transparent
manner.
In 2020, we launched the Ocyan Socio Environmental Platform, which materializes our interaction with the
people in the areas where we operate. With structured management work, the platform now receives new
projects focused on two lines of action: Local and Human Development and Environmental and Climate
Proactivity.
- Local and Human Development. This line of action considers the strategic axis of valuing social and economic capital, inspired by Ocyan's corporate positioning of continuously expanding benefits to the communities around Business Units. The focus is on creating socio environmental programs that drive a new mindset among team members and the community, providing:
- Environmental and Climate Proactivity. This line of action considers the strategic axis of valuing natural capital, directly related to Ocyan's public commitment.
Projects aim to impact present and future generations, focusing on environmental care, education,
professional qualification, social inclusion, access to knowledge, and attention to coastal biodiversity.
Other important fronts of social investment include family farming, safeguarding natural and cultural
heritage, reducing negative environmental impact, supporting territories, traditional peoples and
communities, social inclusion, and access to knowledge about science, climate change, and coastal
biodiversity regeneration.
Ocyan promotes transparency in activities developed with the encompassed communities, building a
relationship of trust through the publication of a public report with information on the initiatives
developed.
