#8M: International Women’s Day

At Juba, women not only work, they also lead, decide and build. In a sector traditionally dominated by men, female leadership is a reality in this company. On this International Women's Day, Juba wants to show its commitment to gender equality because it is not just a statement. Both the company's management and many of the positions in the middle management are occupied by women. Here, the joint work of women and men drives growth and allows us to be leaders in Iberia in working gloves in a highly competitive market, as well as being present in more than 40 countries. However, the road has not always been easy. In fact, the presence of women in industrial and technical sectors is still a minority. The women at Juba challenge the status quo, change the rules of the game and demonstrate that growth is achieved by men and women working together, because real transformation happens when we move forward together. Beyond 8M: a daily commitment Juba's commitment to gender equality is not just a message to celebrate International Women's Day. The company works every day to ensure that the entire team has the same opportunities for growth and development, regardless of their gender. The company directs its actions to the global commitment of the 2030 Agenda, driving actions that promote gender equality. In particular, it works in line with the following Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): SDG 5: Gender equality - Promoting the presence of women in leadership positions and fostering a work environment where all people have equal opportunities for development. SDG 8: Decent work and economic growth - focus on fair working conditions, equal access to growth opportunities and the elimination of all gender gaps. SDG 10: Reducing inequalities - Implementing internal policies that favour inclusion and diversity, ensuring that talent is the sole criterion for professional growth. The road to real equality still has challenges, but at Juba we believe that a more equitable world is possible and that every action, no matter how small, contributes to achieving it.

Juba: Committed to sustainability and the future of the planet

Juba's team is very proud to announce another important step in its commitment to sustainability. Over the past few years, it has worked hard to calculate its carbon footprint and effectively reduce it. Now, it wants to go further and offset its environmental impact by actively contributing to the fight against climate change. To this end, the company has planted more than 6.800 trees in the municipality of Pobladura del Valle, Zamora, creating a natural CO2 sink. This forest not only captures carbon, but also offers numerous ecosystemic benefits that contribute to the improvement of the environment and local communities. Benefits of the project in Pobladura del Valle 🌳 The creation of this carbon sink not only helps to mitigate the effects of climate change, but also brings a number of tangible environmental and social benefits: Increased biodiversity: We increase the variety of plant and animal species, creating a richer and more balanced ecosystem. Production of natural resources: We enhance both timber and non-timber resources, supporting the local economy in a sustainable way. Landscape and visual improvement: We beautify the environment, creating natural spaces that enrich the landscape and provide recreational areas. Soil protection and restoration: Our trees help prevent erosion and improve soil quality. Increasing water catchment capacity: We contribute to improving the land's capacity to absorb and retain water, protecting water resources. Supporting the fight against depopulation: We promote the reactivation of rural areas and the generation of opportunities for their inhabitants. Development of research projects: We promote scientific studies that help us to better understand how to optimise these ecosystems for greater environmental benefit. Juba's contribution to SDG 13: Climate Action 🌍 This project is aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 13: Climate Action, which seeks to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. Through the creation of natural carbon sinks, we not only contribute to reducing the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, but also help to create resilient ecosystems that mitigate the effects of climate change, such as droughts, fires and loss of biodiversity. In this way, we are committed to being an active part of the global fight against global warming and to promoting natural solutions that benefit both the environment and local communities. Together for a more sustainable future 🌱🍋 This project is just the beginning. The Juba team firmly believes in the power of small actions to make a significant impact on our planet. On this journey, they have surrounded themselves with the best partners: Ecosil and CarbonX, who share their vision in this adventure towards a more sustainable future. At Juba, we will continue to work tirelessly to minimise our environmental impact and provide solutions that benefit everyone. We are convinced that, by joining forces, we can make a big difference. Thank you for being part of this journey towards a greener and healthier world!
