Heineken NV

Heineken NV demonstrates some climate lobbying governance through a 2021 review of its external engagement platforms, noting that "following the launch of Net Zero, HEINEKEN made a review of the platforms we were engaged with" and subsequently choosing to "focus on key platforms that had an aligned approach when it comes to climate change" such as the World Economic Forum, RE100, the Climate Pledge and industry partnerships to "influence the policy makers." It also has a formal oversight structure in which the "Sustainability and Responsibility Steering Committee (S&R SteerCo), chaired by the CEO" supervises the delivery of its climate strategy, supported by a Carbon Steering Committee that "reviews the progress of our net zero carbon programme" and uses "tracking tools and dashboards." However, the company does not disclose any ongoing or periodic review of climate lobbying activities beyond the one-off platform review, provides no detail on how its committees specifically govern or monitor lobbying engagement, and makes no explicit reference to alignment of direct lobbying or a named individual responsible for that oversight, indicating that its governance framework for climate lobbying is limited.
