ABOUT THIS REPORT We have prepared this report for our key stakeholders, including our employees, suppliers, customers, partners and host communities to provide them with an in-depth review of our environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance in relation to our key material issues, for the last financial year between 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021. This is our first standalone ESG report, and contributes to the formalisation of DP World’s ‘Our World Our Future’ sustainability strategy for the Group. DP World has been a signatory to the UN Global Compact (UNGC) since 2019. This report, in conjunction with DP World’s Annual Report 2021, serves as DP World’s Communication on Progress (COP), in accordance with the UN Global Compact Advanced Level criteria. Both reports are available on our website. We have used the GRI Standards as a guidance to determine report content and quality, including stakeholder inclusiveness, materiality, clarity and accuracy. The scope of the report covers all our business activities, i.e. our logistics, ports and terminals, economic zones and marine services. The boundaries we have used to assess impacts and collate data include areas where we have operational control. This excludes our fraud risk data, which covers all entities. RELEVANT REPORTING FRAMEWORKS • UN Sustainable Development Goals • Guided by GRI Sustainability Reporting Standards • UN Women Empowerment Principles • DP World’s ‘Our World Our Future’ ESG scorecard comprising over 30 indicators REPORT PRESENTATION AND PREPARATION The preparation of the annual ESG Report is the responsibility of the Group Sustainability & Impact (GSI) team.
