Our Approach to ESG

Vodacom exists to connect for a better future.

We recognise that to deliver on this purpose, ESG must be integrated into what we do.

ESG is not a distinct strategy or set of activities separate from our daily management of the business; it is embedded into Vodacom’s purpose-led strategy, business model and activities through priority ESG initiatives.

Our purpose-led strategy serves as our ESG framework, driving the Group to manage ESG risks and deliver positive impact through ESG-related opportunities, considering our operating context, stakeholder expectations and developing ESG regulations and standards.

This strategy – which at its core remains connecting for a better future by enabling a trusted digital society that is inclusive and sustainable – focuses on ‘Empowering people’ and ‘Protecting the planet’ and is underpinned by our commitment to Maintaining trust in everything we do.

Empowering people

We aim to close the digital divide and help people benefit from digitalisation.

Protecting the planet

We want to help protect the planet and enable our customers to do the same

Maintaining trust

We aim to be a trusted partner to our customers, employees, suppliers and the communities we serve in the digital society.

 

Contributing to UN Sustainable Development Goals

We have defined ESG goals linked to local and global ambitions, such as local government development plans and UN SDGs.

Transparency and measurement

Transparency is essential to our ESG approach and we seek to provide comprehensive disclosure and measure our ESG progress using multiple mechanisms such as ESG ratings, reputation tracking and stakeholder feedback.
