Our efforts benefit considerably from the knowledge, perspective, criticism, and advice of experienced professionals who work in various fields related to sustainability. For this reason, in 2008 we assembled a group of independent sustainability experts to advise us on our efforts. CEMEX’s Sustainable Development Reporting Advisory Panel provides feedback on our sustainability reporting and encourages us to continue improving it.
For the 2009 reporting period, while we have not been able to immediately respond to all the concerns raised in the last year’s report, we have made progress on a number of fronts and will continue to improve our performance and reporting in the coming year.
For the 2010 reporting period, CEMEX invited new experts to take part in the Advisory Panel. The new panel first met with CEMEX’s sustainability team in December 2010 in Cancun, Mexico, while attending the events and exhibits in which CEMEX participated during the 16th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 16). In addition, the panel members and CEMEX’s sustainability team met in a private session during which CEMEX shared its Sustainability Model and its progress in the implementation of its most relevant initiatives.
In January 2011, panel members reviewed the outline for our 2010 report and provided recommendations that we have incorporated into the report development. This marks the first time we involved panel members at the beginning of the reporting process; we found their perspective very helpful. For example, based on their feedback, we crafted the introductory sections such that they can be used as a stand-alone summary of the entire report. With this structure, readers who read only the introduction will still gain a balanced understanding of our priorities, the progress we’ve made in achieving them, and where we need to improve. We have also incorporated key performance indicators into each priority section—in addition to including a consolidated data section at the end of the report—and have more fully explained our efforts to protect biodiversity and develop a comprehensive water-management strategy.
We thank the panel members for their time and efforts and look forward to more productive—and challenging—discussions with them throughout the year.
