ESG

As signatories of the Pact Against Violence, we will monitor the actions developed in this area. The Pact Against Violence aims to formalise a network of entities that collaborate with the Office of the Secretary of State for Citizenship and Equality and the Commission for Citizenship and Gender Equality in the mobilisation of emergency responses and support for the work of the structures of the National Network for Support to Victims of Domestic Violence (RNAVVD), in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The .PT assumed the Commitment Lisbon European Green Capital 2020 - Lisbon 2030 Climate Action. To be at the forefront of achieving an agenda for sustainability we have to work as a whole. With this ambition Lisbon then launched the Commitment with an ambitious agenda for the next decade, under the motto CHOOSE TO EVOLVE: 2030 measures for 2030. Social responsibility and sustainability are areas in which .PT marks its effective presence, fulfilling the essential role that each entity should have in the future of the planet and of future generations. The new .PT headquarters will mirror, as described in this Plan, this intention not only to suffice but also to have a more sustainable and environmentally friendly performance. In this scope, a study will be carried out to evaluate the carbon footprint of the means (digital and physical) and of the services delivered, in order to make an impact evaluation, find solutions and define alternative behaviours in conformity with the principles of environmental responsibility to which the organisation committed itself.

.PT is one of the signatory entities of the Digital with Purpose movement, an initiative of the Global Enabling Sustainability Initiative (GESI), that seeks to create more business value through Digital Technology, thus complying with the Paris Agreement and the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. The movement believes in "a world where technology, innovation and collaboration can transform the riches of our planet." This year we will follow the actions developed within this movement.

We will promote and develop environment preservation practices with the team, such as the reduction of energy consumption, printing, recycling, use of sustainable and 100% Portuguese products, and also through the use of materials and equipment of the new .PT space. The new .PT headquarters, Barra Barra, mirrors a more sustainable and environmentally friendly performance.
