CREATING IMPACT
JCM strives to achieve meaningful social and environmental impact both through our core business operations and our corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. In 2019, we developed our impact strategy and established our three key impact pathways, namely:
JCM as a producer of renewable energy;
JCM as an employer; and
JCM as an implementer of CSR projects.
This was the first step in developing clearly defined impact objectives and integrating our impact strategy into the business. We have also developed an Impact Policy and an Impact Measurement Framework to support in the ongoing monitoring and reporting of our impact-related activities.

OUR IMPACT STORIES
Our goal is to address key barriers in achieving gender equality across the company and among our projects and to learn ways to apply a gender-lens to our decision-making, day-to-day activities, and thereby increase women’s participation in the renewable energy sector.
JCM AS A GENDER-FORWARD BUSINESS
2019 marked the beginning of our journey to advance the inclusion and empowerment of women in a more intentional way, recognising this as a pillar of inclusion and diversity more broadly.
We have thus signed our commitment to the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles, developed our Gender Commitment Statement and a Gender Action Plan (GAP) which is steered by our Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) Committee.
These actions paved the road for JCM’s qualification for the 2X Challenge in 2021.
