AES Vietnam is honored to receive the 2023 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Award from the American Chamber of Commerce in Hanoi (AmCham Hanoi) for the seventh consecutive year.
The award program, which is held annually, recognizes US companies that demonstrate a strong connection between their business operations and society and who strive for both long-term economic and social value in Vietnam.
“The award is given to companies with high marks in four categories: attention to business objectives and societal needs; creation of long-term economic and social gains; communication and sharing of best practices; and program sustainability. AmCham congratulates AES Vietnam on their CSR Recognition Award.” said Adam Sitkoff, Executive Director of AmCham Hanoi.
“We are grateful to AmCham Hanoi for this recognition, which reflects our values and mission as a company. We believe that CSR is not only a duty but also an opportunity to create positive impacts and share AES’ values in the communities where we are operating. We are proud to be part of the journey to develop a prosperous Vietnam through our CSR program.” said Joe Uddo, President of AES Vietnam.
In addition, in November 2023, AES Vietnam also received recognition from AmCham Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh Chapter, with an ESG Impact Showcase award. AES Vietnam was praised for its reliable and responsible partnership in providing safe, affordable, and sustainable energy solutions for Vietnam, as well as its unwavering commitment to ESG principles. The award is another testament to AES Vietnam’s leadership and excellence in sustainability and social responsibility in Vietnam.
Since 2015, AES Vietnam’s CSR program has been implemented to improve the quality of life for local communities in Vietnam. More than 170 CSR initiatives have been held, benefiting more than 200,000 people across the country. All activities were designed to match local needs identified through consultations all together with local stakeholders and community leaders to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals framework (SDGs) developed by the United Nations.
