A Sustainable Media Company
Sustainability
Mediahuis Nederland is part of a European media group with companies and operations in Belgium, the Netherlands, Ireland, Germany, and Luxembourg. Together, we believe it is important to work toward sustainability and make a positive contribution to society. We’d like to share with you how we do that.
A Green Future
Our green transition is a mission for all of us. By 2050, we aim to be a climate-neutral organization. To achieve this, our net CO2 emissions must reach zero in the printing and distribution of our newspapers, in our offices, and in the area of mobility. To fulfill our green promises, we have committed to setting science-based climate targets, known as Science Based Targets. You can read more about this on our group’s website.
Journalism that matters
Mediahuis believes in independent journalism and strong, relevant media that make a positive contribution to our society. That is at the heart of what we do, and our journalism provides millions of people with information, insight, and inspiration. Now more than ever, independent journalism and diverse reporting are essential. That is why we have become a co-founder of the Pluralis investment fund. This fund aims to help safeguard independent journalism and diverse reporting in European countries where this is not always a given.
Good Employment Practices
The development and well-being of our employees are high on our agenda. We believe it is important to give all employees the opportunities and resources to grow, but that is by no means the only thing. Engaging in dialogue with one another, focusing on diversity, inclusion, and a healthy work-life balance ensure that our employees and their talents are fully realized. Together, we foster a culture of openness that embraces differences.
We have a clear responsibility to society, our readers, and our employees. Doing nothing is not an option. Setting science-based climate goals makes the efforts we need to make very concrete and also enables us to communicate transparently about our progress
