In the month in which International Women's Day is celebrated, Neoenergia was recognized for its actions for the benefit of the female audience. This Thursday (14/3), the company received the Good Practices Award from the They Lead 2030 Movement, promoted by the United Nations (UN) Global-Rede Brasil Pact. The achievement was achieved through the internal implementation of the protection, reception and support program for employees who suffer domestic violence. The initiative was created last year as part of Neoenergia's Diversity and Inclusion program, JUNT+s

“We promote diversity and inclusion through actions aimed at social contribution. In this way, we are at the side of our collaborators in search of an even more inclusive, innovative and sustainable future for all,” said Eduardo Capelastegui, CEO

of Neoenergia.

The executive was considered the CEO most engaged with the topic. He received the award, in the “CEO They Lead 2030” category, at a ceremony held in New York, United States.
