In addition, the website entrevoisins.groupeadp.fr (revised in full in 2020) provides continuous access to information and is a key component of this relationship. LISTENING AND ENGAGING Aéroports de Paris uses a variety of methods to collect and respond to regional concerns: ◆ the entities of Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly work in partnership with socio-economic players and associations, local municipalities, consular chambers and government services to deploy the regional strategy. They prioritise regular contact with the 50 closest municipalities most exposed to noise from the Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly Airports; ◆ consultations are conducted as part of major development projects to listen to and give a voice to the populations affected and to engage with them throughout the work. Aéroports de Paris also exercises its societal responsibility by engaging in partnerships with the socio-economic actors in major airport areas, with political, consular or association representatives, and with French government services. 2021 achievements and results The health crisis led to the closure of the Maisons de l’Environnement et du Développement Durable (MEDD) for several months. Nevertheless, the links have never been broken and continuous contact has been maintained with the local players thanks to digital means enabling a certain level of information to be maintained on the activities of the airports or the management of the pandemic in the terminals. The entrevoisins.groupeadp.fr website makes it possible to share information on airport activity and to disseminate news on the evolution of the situation and the outlook for the sector’s recovery. In addition, depending on the health situation, visits were organised for local elected officials to show in situ the measures deployed by the Group in the terminals to encourage the resumption of traffic in optimal health and safety conditions, and exchanges with local residents’ associations were organised. Meetings with the elected representatives of prioritymunicipalities were maintained. Actively contribute to reducing noise exposure Policy and objectives MEASURING AND MONITORING Aéroports de Paris manages a laboratory that has approximately fifty permanent noise measuring stations around the Paris airports. This system makes it possible to continuously monitor aircraft noise and correlate the results with flight paths and aircraft types. These measurements are sent monthly to the

The purpose of an airport is not only to connect a region or a country to the rest of the world: anchored in the regions, airports also play a major role in their planning, quality of life, and economic and social development. They must therefore maintain a constant dialogue and engage with local authorities, economic players and residents. Thus, Groupe ADP pursues a real policy of economic and social cooperation in its regions, which aims in particular to share with them the benefits of airport activities both on the Parisian platforms and internationally. To ensure this sharing of value with the region, Groupe ADP implements a policy organised around four themes, included in the Airports for Trust charter signed by 23 Group airports in January 2021: ◆ actively contribute to improving the living environment of local populations and to reducing noise exposure; ◆ build a long-term relationship of trust with the regions and local players; ◆ make the regions the primary beneficiaries of airport activities (training, integration and employment); ◆ lead the airport community. Build a long-term relationship of trust with the regions and local players In France, the Maisons de l’Environnement et du Développement durable (MEDD) at Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly have been at the heart of relations with local regions since their creation 25 years ago. These public reception areas, unique in the airport world, are intended to maintain constructive and lasting dialogue with local populations to help promote mutual understanding and knowledge between local residents and air transport players. These two centres welcome visitors and offer them fun and educational activities to learn the behind-the-scenes of airports, air traffic management, aviation history and local heritage: guided tours open to all, career information for high school students, educational events for primary schools, etc. They also offer a varied range of free cultural events that are open to all, including exhibitions, films and discussions, conferences, virtual flying weekends, etc. They are also places for discussion, reflection and consultation with locally elected representatives and economic players: informative meetings on development projects, recruitment events and meetings with the business world, and hosting of the Environmental Advisory Committees. They also host meetings of the Clubs des Partenaires Environnement , which bring together companies based at the three Parisian airports around environmental issues.
