Hyundai Motor Group announced on the 23rd that it is expanding its local social contribution (CSR) activities in Brazil to embark on a journey of co-growth with the community. This initiative is being carried out as part of the commitment made by Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Jeong Seon during his meeting with Brazilian President Lula in 2024, pledging an investment of $1.1 billion and contributions to the local community by 2032.
In the environmental sector, it will launch its flagship social contribution project, "Ioniq Forest." From 2022 through the first half of this year, Hyundai Motor planted 100,000 native trees in areas across Minas Gerais and São Paulo states, restoring a 40-hectare Atlantic Forest. Additionally, it is providing an agroforestry system (SAF), an eco-friendly farming method that cultivates timber and crops together, to support residents' livelihoods.
In the medical sector, it will expand the scope of its "Sori Sotadao" mobile dental clinic project. Launched in 2014, this project visits various regions via treatment trailers to provide oral examinations and care, achieving a cumulative total of over 83,000 treatments as of May this year. Hyundai Motor plans to expand the beneficiaries to include welfare institutions, schools, police stations, and fire departments in the future.
In the cultural and educational sectors, major group affiliates will participate. Hyundai Glovis will host a "Korean Film Festival," screening the films "The King's Man" and "There Is No Way Out," while also sponsoring the Piracicaba Symphony Orchestra and conducting youth judo education programs. Hyundai Mobis will provide job lectures for local youths through its IT education program, "Instituto Formar Lectures."
