One of the MOL Group's sustainability issues (materiality) is " Human & Community-Contributing to the growth and development of people and communities," and we strive to coexist with everyone involved with the Group and promote the sustainable development and promotion of local communities. These activities are part of that initiative.
Under the Corporate Mission of "From the blue oceans, we sustain people's lives and ensure a prosperous future," one of the group's codes of conduct is to take the initiative in addressing issues faced by society and to act responsibly.
We will contribute to the realization of a sustainable society and the achievement of UN-designated Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as increasing corporate value by earnestly engaging in social contribution activities beyond the scope of our business in addition to social contributions through our core business to address various issues facing society.
In terms of specific activities, we have set "Marine Environment," "Next-generation Human Resources Development," and "Addressing Local Community Challenges" as priority areas, and develop activities suited to each country and region in which we are involved in our business, developing the strengths of our group. In addition, we strive to promote and improve the group's social contribution activities by disclosing the details of our activities and communicating with society.

As a group engaged in ocean shipping and offshore businesses, we believe that our mission for ourselves and for future society is to work for the conservation of the marine environment, including biodiversity. We recognize the importance of conveying the maritime industry as an essential social infrastructure that supports our daily lives. Based on this belief, the group has set "Marine Environment (Protection of marine ecosystems and prevention of marine pollution," "Next-generation Human Resources Development (Providing maritime education opportunities)," and "Addressing Local Community Challenges (Solving problems in areas where we do business and providing support to those affected by for disasters and conflicts)" as priority areas, and proactively works on these issues by deepening cooperation with related NGOs, NPOs, and other organizations, local communities, research institutions, and others. We also intend to accumulate knowledge in these fields and pass it on to the next generation.
Illustration of the positioning of Social Contribution Activities
Led by the Environment & Sustainability Strategy Division in cooperation, the group implements social contribution activities in cooperation with other related divisions of MOL and MOL Group companies in Japan and overseas. Major initiatives are deliberated by the Sustainability Committee, a subordinate body of the Executive Committee, creating a system that puts these activities under the supervision of the Board of Directors.
MOL established MOL (Mauritius) Ltd in 2020 to restore and preserve the natural environment and support local communities in Mauritius, and proactively interacts with the local community in Mauritius.
