CREATING SUSTAINABLE AIRPORTS LIFTS US ALL
At Cork and Dublin Airports, we are on a journey to halve our carbon emissions by 2030, and reach Net Zero Carbon across our Group by 2050. Our efforts are recognised by the Airport Carbon Accreditation scheme and in our corporate plans to invest over €400 million in sustainable infrastructure across both airports, including renewable energy and electric fleet, as well as incentivising airlines that use more efficient and quieter aircraft.
€4M DONATED TO CHARITIES LIFTS US ALL
Cork and Dublin Airports’ Charity of the Year programme has raised over €4m for 36 different charities across Ireland since 2007, with three new recipients nominated by daa staff every year. A massive thank you to our employees who are the driving force behind the programme and to the hundreds of thousands of passengers who have so generously contributed through the charity collection points at Dublin & Cork airports.
€10M+ TO COMMUNITIES LIFTS US ALL
At Dublin Airport, our €10 million community fund supports hundreds of local groups and initiatives and is one of the many ways that we give back to our local communities. We also support local schools through staff volunteering days and help students from disadvantaged areas to further their education through the DCU Access programme.
