REDUCE CO2 EMISSIONS RESPONSIBLE PURCHASING POLICY REDUCTION IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION

Fewer international air flights per FTE

10% reduction per year

# flights per FTE = 0.47, an increase of > 1146% compared to 2021. This was due to resumption of travel after the COVID-19 lockdowns. # flights per FTE is however much lower than the baseline in 2019 (1.4 flights per FTE).

70 flights / 149 FTE = 0.47

182 flights/ 142 FTE = 1.28 per FTE In 2024, # flights per FTE increased. Following the COVID period, the standard for the number of flights was set very strictly, which affected the quality of international programme work. SCNL therefore decided to permit more flights.

CO2 compensation for travel by plane

CO2 emissions based on 2019 carbon baseline are offset

SCNL compensated 127 tons of CO2 via a biogas project implemented by Hivos in Kenya, amounting to 74% of our carbon emissions in our 2019 baseline.

SCNL stated its intent to do CO2 compensation via SCI’s investment projects.

SCNL will compensate the CO2 emitted in 2024.

Use of public transport for commuter journeys is more encouraged
