Rusal has won the We Are Together international award for its contribution to the social development of regions. The award was given for the project "Sustainable Cities", the company's press service reported.

The We Are Together Award has been awarded since 2020 to volunteers, non-profit organizations, commercial companies and authorities for initiatives aimed at helping people and improving the quality of life. The award was created by order of the President of the Russian Federation. This year's winners include Megafon's Future Depends on You project, the New Radio AWARDS charity music marathon in favor of the Konstantin Khabensky Foundation's wards, the Energetic People of Nuclear Power Plants - Architects of the ECO Future and RUSAL's Sustainable Cities projects.

As part of the project, the company works to create and develop infrastructure and services that make cities more attractive to people.

A systematic approach to the implementation of social programs was laid down by the Company's founder Oleg Deripaska.

Since 2015, the priority area of RUSAL Territories has been the integrated development of the urban environment, including the creation of modern and comfortable public and cultural spaces, as well as the transition from point projects for the development of social infrastructure to long-term urban development plans and replication of the best urban solutions. Today, thanks to Rusal's investments, cities can successfully attract state co-financing for development.

For example, in 2020-2021, Rusal supported large-scale projects for the improvement of open public spaces in 11 small towns for the amount of 445 million rubles.

In 2023, Rusal implemented more than 300 social projects.
