Corporate social responsibility Since ADNOC’s establishment, we have focused on creating positive social outcomes in the communities where we operate. Guided by ADNOC’s core values, our CSR principles help us translate these values into focused initiatives that meet priority social and community needs identified through strategic planning and stakeholder engagement. Our CSR initiatives support the UAE Vision 2031, contribute to relevant UN SDGs and support our corporate strategy. In 2025, these initiatives reached more than 1.6 million people. ADNOC’s CSR strategy provides a structured, centrally governed framework for community investment, guided by four focused pillars: growth and learning; sports, health and wellbeing; natural heritage and environment; and culture and community. These pillars define priority areas and direct the allocation of resources toward initiatives designed to create shared value. Our CSR principles Relevant to national contexts CSR programs must be strongly integrated with the UAE’s national priorities and contextually relevant on a local and national level to contribute to the UN SDGs. Smart partnerships All CSR programs are implemented in collaboration with national community organizations, academic institutions, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and government agencies. Employee engagement CSR programs are designed in a way that provides employees with opportunities to maximize their charitable impacts and contribute their time and talent to support local communities. Stakeholder dialogue Assuring that our programs meet stakeholder expectations is the foundation of our CSR approach. Sustainable and result driven All CSR programs are long-term, strategic programs that strengthen our “One Community” approach to creating positive impact and lasting value for all.
