JAKARTA: Sustainability is a key element of every activity and decision-making process at Astra. This principle is embodied in the Astra 2030 Sustainability Aspirations, which guide Astra’s sustainability transition journey through 2030 and beyond.

Through the Astra 2030 Sustainability Aspirations, we combine our focus on communities with a focus on climate and the planet to contribute to strengthening Indonesia’s economic growth and resilience while supporting inclusive social prosperity.

In 2023, Astra’s commitment to sustainability was detailed in the 2023 Sustainability Report themed “Driving Purposeful Sustainable Growth”.
