About Social Investment

Through Shell's operations around the world, we undertake a wide range of social investment activities.  These activities are driven by a commitment to sustainable development and a belief that our long-term success depends on being able to strike the right balance between economic growth, care for the environment and equitable social development.

Social Investment can mean different things to different people. For Shell, Social Investment is a targeted investment made by a business that assists community organisations to achieve their goals.

Areas of focus under Shell's national social investment programme:

• Care for the environment
• Education (with a focus on disadvantaged groups)
• Health (with a focus on disadvantaged groups)
