The ESG pillars are part of our identity: underpin Our Way of Being and Doing and our strategic plans for the future. Aware of our responsibility, the direct and indirect impacts and the risks and opportunities to which our business is exposed, in 2021 we consolidated our Sustainability Strategy 2025 which was revised in 2023. During 2024, we began discussions to establish new sustainability targets and challenges, considering the proximity of the end of the cycle that began in 2021, which has 2025 as its horizon. So, as well as being focused on delivering the targets set, we are also designing the next goals that will guide the Company's future strategy.
