Social Commitment
Our mission is to actively reduce poverty in our communities, fight climate change and push technological education to the future needs, all aligned with the UN's SDGs.
At the Social Commitment department, we will strengthen our support to the communities where Siemens Gamesa operates with a long-term strategy to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations to meet 2030 Agenda. We will focus on combating poverty, protecting the environment and promoting technological education, relying as much as possible on the company's volunteers.

With the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine deepening, Siemens Gamesa has launched a collaboration with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), to raise money to aid those dispossessed or displaced by the conflict.
Siemens Gamesa employees wishing to donate will have their contribution matched, and doubled, by the company. For every Euro donated, the company will give two Euros.
As a company committed to making a difference, and there is no more immediate need to make a positive difference than in Ukraine at this moment. Aid will take the form of healthcare, shelter and support services for those who have had to flee their homes, or their country.

Siemens Gamesa funded the acquisition of medical supplies and food donations for coronavirus relief as well as psychological care. The donations were targeted at hospitals and communities where the company operates.
