the Group s divisions and subsidiaries and are in line with CMA CGM s objectives for achieving the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. In 2020 the Group focused on 13 priority challenges for continual improvement:
People - Diversity: equal opportunity, gender equality,
multiculturalism, multigenerational and disability aspects
- Talent development: career management, training, skills development, remuneration policy
- Working conditions: quality of life and well-being at work, employee fulfilment, social dialogue, local
employment and work opportunities, socio-economic impact, business continuity plan

commitment to local regions and communities through the CMA CGM Foundation and local and Group initiatives.
- CMA CGM Foundation: promoting education for all. The Foundation takes action worldwide to provide the education needed to help children and young people find their place in the world of tomorrow.

drastic reduction in our greenhouse gas emissions. There are still no mature technical solutions for zero- carbon merchandise transport. The CMA CGM Group is investing massively in Research and Development (R&D) to design the clean vessels of the future.
It is already committed to using the best solutions available today. - Air quality: in addition to carbon dioxide, the Group
is striving to reduce sulphur and nitrogen oxide and fine particle emissions. As these emissions threaten
public health and air quality, they are governed by increasingly stringent international and local regulations.
- Biodiversity: marine & inland pollution (such as oil spills and containers lost at sea), dismantling and recycling ships, other land and underwater pollution (smell, sight and noise pollution), protection of cetaceans, ballast water management, ocean governance.
