AXA is today announcing the roll-out of its training offer on the challenges of climate change to its individual shareholders, thus confirming its ambition to be a responsible player in society in the face of environmental challenges.
The fight against climate change, as well as prevention and adaptation to this change, are strategic pillars for AXA, as an insurer, as an investor and as an employer. This is why, after having trained 96% of its employees in the challenges of climate change through a training program created by AXA Climate, the Group is now going to offer this training, The Climate School, to its individual shareholders.
AXA Climate's Climate School has been produced with contributions from over 120 scientists, experts and researchers around the world and is the most comprehensive 100% digital micro-learning catalogue on environmental and sustainable transition issues to date. It provides a user-friendly, science-based learning experience to explain the impacts of climate change on the environment and businesses, and to show what can be done to reduce them at both individual and corporate level. It is, for example, through this platform and its various modules that we aim to reinforce the awareness of our individual shareholders about these issues.
The development of extra-financial knowledge is essential to ensure an effective and sustainable transition of our business. Our individual shareholders are an integral part of this process, and their involvement will be essential in realizing the actions that the AXA Group has been undertaking for many years.

AXA has always placed science at the heart of its actions. This training course, which we are now going to open up to our individual shareholders, is one of the ways in which we are demonstrating this. By educating as many people as possible, we are continuing and persevering in our commitment to a more virtuous, low-carbon world.
