Global Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) Statement
Not all of us are so privileged to have access to good quality education and to afford the best education is not in everybody is means. It is our aim to make education more affordable globally.
Our schooling system globally has fallen behind with the evolution of what we need to learn to be prepared for the industries of the future. We have a massive task to look at our learning methods and material globally, to see whether what is being taught today is still relevant for the people and human beings we have to be in the future.
As trusted advisors to our clients, we will:
- Actively seek out the most transformative, innovative projects to pioneer a more sustainable future.
- Provide forward-thinking advice and unparalleled expertise to help our clients thrive in a changing world and make the transition to a low-carbon economy.
In strengthening our expertise, we will:
- Leverage global research and the wider industry to assist our businesses and clients in addressing the world’s most significant challenges, including climate change.
- Enhance our reputation and global strength as a diversified professional services firm through the solutions we offer.
- Seek to incorporate sustainability and resilience into all phases of the project lifecycle.
In achieving operational excellence, we will:
- Measure and manage our ESG performance and improve it over time, including formal assessments of ESG risks and opportunities associated with our operations.
- Comply with applicable regulations relating to protecting the environment and preventing pollution and drive continuous improvement in our environmental management systems.
- Seek suppliers who are committed to our ESG objectives and engage all stakeholders to improve performance in our supply chain.
Not all of us are privileged enough to have access to good quality and affordable education.
Technological advancements and other industrial improvements maximize the need for global education for industry transformation. The job you do today might not be a possible job position tomorrow.
Jobs are evolving, therefore the human race must be open to evolve with it. To do this, we need to work together on creating platforms and ways to educate the human race on the evolution of these industries. Job – and industry transformation is something we will not be able to prevent but can adapt to so that we do not become redundant human beings. We all deserve a happy place on earth where we can do what we love every day and make a difference.
This will only happen through continuous learning and education for all. It all starts at a very young age; when you start learning how to crawl, how to walk, how to eat, and how to speak. We receive preschool, primary school, high school, and tertiary education and then move on to the working environment. Here we learn through experience and do short courses and other forms of educational material to improve ourselves consistently. All of this is to become better and smarter human beings.
Not all of us are privileged enough to have access to good quality and affordable education. It is our aim to make education globally affordable, giving everyone access with or without an internet connection. With the right knowledge and ambition, this will not be an impossible task. If we all work together on creating an environment where we can educate ourselves and each other in the required industries, as well as the evolution of the human race, the world will be a better place.
We are passionate about the education industry as we believe that a learning mindset will make better human beings. Education is the start of a better future. It teaches you to take care of yourself and your family, to take care of others, generate an income, utilise resources, and grow and build a better future for yourself and your loved ones. Love others as you love yourself.
Our global schooling system has fallen behind with the evolution of what we need to learn to prepare for future industries. We have a massive task to look at our learning methods and material to see whether what is taught today, is still relevant for what we have to be in the future. We need to work together globally to see if this is the way forward for our schools, institutions and industries.
Maybe it’s time for us to adapt and change the methods and materials we use to educate our children. Our children are the future and what we teach them today is what will impact our tomorrow. Let’s be more attentive to what we teach our youth. The principles, moral standards, industry knowledge, technological evolutions, lessons of the past, and everything else that can teach them to be better human beings.
To support our people and culture, we will:
- Foster safe, ethical workplaces that support diversity and inclusion, continuous learning and nurture rewarding careers.
- Give back to the communities where we live and work with time and resources.
- Educate and train our workforce on ESG topics and responsible management.
- Our corporate governance framework supports our ESG activities. Board-level responsibility lies with the Chair of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee (GEC Committee) of the Board of Directors. All employees are responsible for respecting the commitments set out in this Global ESG Statement, and reports on progress will be made quarterly to the Global Leadership Team and the GEC Committee.
