2) Social Responsibility and Social Initiatives
In light of Savola's keenness to contribute to the development of the community in which it operates, the Board sets out the programs and necessary means to launch the company's social responsibility initiatives, and to ensure the sustainability of the CSR programs, Savola Group established Savola World Foundation (a non-profit organization under the supervision of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development) funded by Savola Group which replaced the CSR & Sustainability Department. The Savola World foundation will be managed though the Board of trustees instead of the CSR Committee to oversee the institutional plans, programs and initiatives of social responsibility and to determine the necessary budgets for this in a manner consistent with the provisions of Articles 87 and 88 of the CG Regulations issued by the CMA in light of the Savola World for Social Responsibility Article of Association approved by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development.
