In 2020, Afya Participações reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,663,710 kg CO2e, which included 1,136,350 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 394,040 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 133,320 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has not disclosed emissions data for the years 2021 and 2022, indicating a lack of specific figures for those periods. Afya Participações has not set any formal reduction targets or commitments, nor does it participate in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented climate pledges suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent or related organization, and all figures are sourced directly from Afya Limited. As the company continues to grow, it may consider establishing clearer climate commitments and reduction targets to align with industry standards and expectations.
