Natura &Co is a purpose-driven group uniting Natura and Avon. Together, we believe in the power of cooperation, co-creation, and collaboration for a better way of living and doing business. We believe in promoting real positive economic, social, and environmental impact. In 2023, we celebrated the third year of our Commitment to Life sustainability vision, launched in 2020, which aimed at tackling some of the world’s most urgent challenges. During the last three years we have made significant progress in our commitments, and today, they remain steadfast: aligning with the urgent needs of our planet and its people by addressing the climate crisis, protecting human rights, and building a circular and more regenerative economy. Taking into consideration the targets we have already achieved and the changing landscape, in 2023 we reviewed our Commitment to Life targets, keeping in line with our materiality assessment. Starting from 2023, the reported data now encompasses the consolidated performance of both Natura and Avon International.
