UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE2 3
I am pleased to share the Unilever Foundation’s first annual update.
Unilever has a long, rich history in addressing social issues through our
business and brands. However, the world today is facing unprecedented
challenges. To unlock human potential and irreversibly reduce poverty,
business must play a proactive role in helping improve the quality of life
for all and catalyse sustainable economic growth.
At Unilever, we aim to double the size of our business while reducing our
environmental footprint and increasing our positive social impact. To help
drive the type of transformational change necessary to improve people’s
lives, we launched the Unilever Foundation in 2012.
The Foundation focuses on a select number of unmet social needs that
our business can play a unique role in addressing. Additionally, it is one
important action we are taking to meet the Unilever Sustainable Living
Plan’s ambitious goal of helping more than one billion people improve
their health and well-being while creating a sustainable future.
It reinforces my firm conviction of the power of partnerships, and I am
honoured to work with some of the best in the field. We have made good
progress and could not have achieved as much as we have to date without
the drive and dedication of our partners. In the first year, the Foundation
positively impacted the lives of more than 14.5 million people1
via:
•	 Creating multi-faceted partnerships with five leading
global organizations.
•	 Connecting with consumers on social issues through
brands they know and trust.
•	 Advocating for policies designed to address some of
today’s global health challenges.
•	 Providing critical resources in response to emergencies
and ongoing community needs.
•	 Supporting programmes in communities where we
live and work.
•	 Identifying new ways to engage our employees in
important social issues.
We have learnt a lot that has helped Unilever’s commitment
to being a force for good, as building a better society goes
hand-in-hand with building a more sustainable business.
Now it’s time to set the bar even higher.

The Unilever Foundation’s strategic framework is comprised of six pillars
designed to deliver positive social value while growing our business.
1
WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme: Progress on Drinking Water & Sanitation. 2013 Update.
2
Figures are based on actual reported beneficiaries and estimates of planned outcomes by UNICEF in
conjunction with funds dispersed in 2012.
Together with our global and local partners, we are contributing to improving
the quality of life for individuals in need and creating a sustainable future.
The Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality
of life though the provision of hygiene, sanitation,
access to clean drinking water, basic nutrition 
enhancing self esteem.
Access to sanitation is a basic human right. However,
billions of people lack access to toilets and are forced to
defecate in the open, putting them at risk of preventable
diseases such as diarrhoea and malnutrition. In addition
to improving a child’s health, investments in sanitation
contribute to girls attending and remaining in school
and affords dignity and privacy, particularly for women.
To help address this crisis, the Unilever Foundation
is supporting UNICEF’s Community Approaches to
Total Sanitation (‘CATS’). CATS aims to eliminate open
defecation by changing people’s behaviour and
promoting demand for sanitation. With our support,
UNICEF has implemented and expanded CATS in
Gambia, Ghana, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan,
Philippines, South Sudan, Sudan and Vietnam.
The Foundation is also supporting hygiene and
sanitation programmes in Brazil, India, Indonesia,
Myanmar, South Africa, and Turkey.
UNICEF is also one of our primary partners in
times of disaster and emergency relief.

A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO REDUCING
HUNGER AND POVERTY
Malnutrition affects millions of children worldwide,
robbing them of a bright future. When children
chronically lack the right nutrition, the resulting
damage to their cognitive and physical development
can be irreversible. Malnourished children are
more susceptible to illness and are likely to be less
productive members of society.
The call to action is clear: Investing in nutrition is an
investment in the next generation. To help combat
malnutrition, the Unilever Foundation is partnering with
the World Food Programme (‘WFP’) through Project
Laser Beam (‘PLB’). This public–private partnership
aims to address child malnutrition holistically by
tackling both direct and underlying causes. We are
also supporting the WFP’s school meals programme
in a number of countries, including the Philippines
and Pakistan, as well as emergency preparedness in
Malaysia.
BANGLADESH
The Unilever Foundation is supporting PLB by
working with the following partners to improve
nutrition, access to clean drinking water and
sanitation, hygiene practices, and livelihoods.
Across all initiatives we are utilizing our proven
Lifebouy handwashing model.
•	 WFP: Providing school meals to more than
100,000 children to improve their nutritional
status and encourage regular school attendance.
•	 WaterAid: Helping provide access to safe drinking
water, sanitation facilities and hygiene training.
•	 BRAC and JITA: Supporting programmes that
uplift more than 3,000 women from poverty
through education, skills-based training and
micro-financing opportunities.
•	 Friendship: Ensuring that mothers and their
children receive family planning education,
pre- and post-natal care, and primary health care.
INDONESIA
PLB, with support from the Foundation, has
launched an innovative, local food-based school
meals programme in cooperation with several other
private and public organisations. This programme
takes a holistic approach to child malnutrition by:
•	 Using locally sourced ingredients.
•	 Cooking with essential micronutrient powders.
•	 Providing education on nutrition, health and
hygiene.
Results indicate that when children receive a hot,
nutritious meal every day at school, they are more
likely to come to school and are able to concentrate
better in class.
For nearly
870 MILLIONpeople today - one out of every eight on the
planet – hunger is a battle that is being lost and
children are among the most affected.1
12 MILLION+school meals distributed.
170,000+lives Improved.2
PROGRAMME
HIGHLIGHTS
EVERY ONE CAMPAIGN
To help end the injustice of millions of children dying
before they reach their 5th
birthday, the Unilever
Foundation has made a three-year, €15 million
commitment to Save the Children’s biggest-ever
global campaign, EVERY ONE.
Our partnership will improve the lives of 2 million
children and their mothers by 2016 by providing access
to health workers, basic nutrition and life-saving
interventions. Additionally, we are working together to
create a platform that generates public and political
support for child survival.
In addition, the Unilever Foundation has been funding
Save the Children’s local programmes in Australia,
Bolivia, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Italy, Japan,
New Zealand and Peru.
As part of on-going work in disaster and emergency
response, the Foundation is also supporting Save the
Children’s Humanitarian Health Workers programme
to significantly scale-up frontline health capacity
so that many more children’s lives can be saved in
emergencies.
Lastly, we are supporting Save the Children’s
emergency work in Myanmar, Somalia and Syria.
Unilever is working with Save the Children before,
during and after an emergency strikes, making sure
children caught up in emergencies can get the urgent
care they need.
The partnership has identified five priority countries
based on where the needs are greatest and where
Unilever has a presence: Bangladesh, China, Kenya,
Nigeria and Pakistan.
The results expected by the end of the first year of
our work together include:
•	 5,237 health service providers (e.g. doctors,
nurses and community health workers) will be
trained to deliver life-saving assistance.
•	 558,382 women and children will directly benefit
from health and nutrition services and education
resulting from the training we support.
•	 200 health clinics will be improved in
Bangladesh, Kenya, Nigeria and Pakistan through
provision of equipment and infrastructure
enhancements.
•	 1.9 million community members across the
five priority countries will benefit indirectly as a
result of our support.
•	 1.14 million community members will indirectly
benefit from a stronger national health system in
Nigeria.
•	 Greater advocacy for improved health and
nutrition policies through collaborations with
the Governments of Bangladesh, China, Kenya,
Nigeria and Pakistan.
•	 New research in Nigeria and Bangladesh to
help Governments improve on their health and
nutrition service delivery approaches.
Every year
6.9 MILLIONchildren die before their 5th
birthday, mostly from
preventable diseases or simply because they
don’t have enough food to eat.1
Over
1 MILLIONpeople will have access to health workers, basic
nutrition and life saving interventions.2

HIGHLIGHTS
SAVING LIVES THROUGH HANDWASHING
 SAFE DRINKING WATER
Diarrhoea and pneumonia are leading causes of death in
children under five1
.
More than half of these early child deaths are due to
conditions that could be prevented or treated with
access to simple, affordable interventions.
The Unilever Foundation and PSI, a global health
organisation, are working together to avert these
preventable deaths by teaching people about the
importance of handwashing and increasing access
to clean drinking water in parts of Africa and Asia,
respectively. Through our partnership, we are providing
funds, expertise and products to help change health
and hygiene behaviours of families and children in
need while simultaneously working toward Unilever’s
Sustainable Living Plan targets around handwashing
and access to safe, affordable drinking water.
The Unilever Foundation and PSI have been working
with local governments across Kenya, Vietnam,
and Zimbabwe – 3 countries where the practice
of handwashing with soap is low. By employing
Lifebuoy’s School of Five methodology, we have
reached:
•	 Over 200,000 children in 400 schools on how
to improve their hygiene behaviours by getting
them into the habit of correctly and consistently
washing their hands with soap at key occasions
during the day.
Additionally, as part of our goal to make safe
drinking water available and affordable, the
Foundation and PSI have launched WaterworksTM
in Bhopal, India. WaterworksTM
trains women in
delivering and teaching families how to use Pureit
water purifiers. As a result of our combined efforts:
•	 75 women from the communities have been
trained as Waterworkers, in turn, helping to
improve their livelihoods.
•	 15,000 households in need have received free
Pureit home water purifiers.
Every year, more than
2 MILLIONchildren do not reach their fifth birthday due to
deaths from diarrhoea and pneumonia.1
Nearly
800 MILLIONpeople do not have access to safe drinking water.2

CONNECTING WITH CONSUMERS ADVOCACY
As many of the global health challenges facing society
are beyond our control, it’s imperative that the private
sector engage with governments, NGOs, IGOs, and
other stakeholders to drive the type of transformational
change needed to make a meaningful difference.
The Unilever Foundation has played an important role
in supporting the company’s public policy advocacy
efforts on global health issues. We have done this
by participating in multi-stakeholder dialogues and
advocating for change with a range of external partners
and stakeholders including:
Many of our brands are committed to investing in
critical social issues through product innovations and
benefits, behaviour change programmes, and consumer
engagement campaigns.
By ensuring greater alignment around issues of
importance to our business and engaging our
consumers through brands they know and trust, we are
able to achieve greater scale and impact in building a
better society, while accelerating Unilever’s growth.
We do this through initiatives that are:
3 MILLIONschool meals were provided for children thanks
to the support of consumers participating in our
retail campaign with Coopernic.
BRAND DRIVEN
•	 Domestos, Unilever’s leading toilet hygiene brand,
is supporting UNICEF’s sanitation programmes
for a second consecutive year through its Destroy
Germs, Create Smiles campaign.
•	 Wall’s ice cream, one of our biggest global
brands, launched the Share a Smile, Help a Child
campaign to raise awareness and funds for Save
the Children’s vital work worldwide.
RETAILER DRIVEN
•	 All for One – Against Child Hunger, a consumer
campaign co-created with Coopernic, one of our
European retailers, and several Unilever brands,
is benefiting the World Food Programme in its
fight against malnutrition through school meal
programmes.
SOCIAL MEDIA DRIVEN

UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE12 13
The issues the world is facing require new ways of
working. It is unacceptable that millions of children die
from preventable diseases and malnutrition, and others
lack access to life-saving resources when affordable
solutions exist.
To address these issues, we are supporting several
innovative initiatives:
LOCAL PROGRAMME SUPPORT
EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
RESPONSE STRATEGY
OTHER INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS
While the main focus of the Unilever Foundation is on
programmes with our global partners, we recognise
that some countries have specific requirements
optimally addressed by smaller, niche partnerships.
These partnerships deliver programmes aligned with
the mission of the Foundation but are tailored to meet
specific local requirements. In many instances, such
localised partnerships complement the work done by
our global partners.
This strategy ensures the Foundation remains focused
on our commitment to improving the quality of life by
addressing health and well-being while providing tailored
support to the local communities we serve.
We recognise the impact our 173,000 employees
worldwide can have in helping to address some of the
social challenges of our day and the resulting benefits
of their involvement to our business.
In 2012, we launched initiatives designed to build
awareness of the Unilever Foundation and engage
employees. The Foundation Challenge, a company-
wide search for six internal ambassadors who would
serve as ‘champions’ for our partnerships, was one of
our most successful initiatives engaging employees in
nearly 100 countries.
Additionally, Unilever offices around the world activated
team-oriented and individual initiatives such as food
drives, fundraisers, and volunteer support at youth
centres and schools. Together, our small actions made
big contributions to the world around us.
Employees in over
100 COUNTRIESparticipated in Foundation-related activities in 2012.
DISASTER  EMERGENCY RELIEF
The Unilever Foundation is committed to helping
communities afflicted by natural disasters and other
emergencies.
Given the increasing prevalence of these humanitarian
crises, the Foundation has developed a robust
emergency response strategy to deliver life-saving
solutions in areas where we can make the greatest
impact in times of need: health and hygiene, basic
nutrition, and access to clean drinking water and
sanitation. Our 3-pronged strategy focuses on:
•	 Millennium Villages Project: Working with
the Earth Institute at Columbia University and
Lifebuoy, we are supporting initiatives to improve
sanitation and hygiene processes. Together,
we aim to decrease the incidence of diarrhoeal
diseases, promote gender equality, increase school
attendance, enhance communities’ productivity and
well-being, and improve public policy.
•	 Water  Sanitation for the Urban Poor (‘WSUP’):
Together with WSUP, we developed the Clean Team,
a new business model, offering an innovative
sanitation service to urban households located in
West Africa. Additionally, we are working with
WSUP and Lifebuoy to improve children’s
handwashing practices in South Asia and Africa.
•	 Project Laser Beam: This public-private partnership
between the Unilever Foundation, the World Food
Programme, GAIN, Mondelez and DSM takes a
holistic approach to addressing child malnutrition
by tackling direct and underlying causes through
the creation of a replicable and sustainable model
piloted in Bangladesh and Indonesia.
Creating opportunities for employees to give back is
good for society, our employees, and our business as it:

  • 2. UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE2 3 I am pleased to share the Unilever Foundation’s first annual update. Unilever has a long, rich history in addressing social issues through our business and brands. However, the world today is facing unprecedented challenges. To unlock human potential and irreversibly reduce poverty, business must play a proactive role in helping improve the quality of life for all and catalyse sustainable economic growth. At Unilever, we aim to double the size of our business while reducing our environmental footprint and increasing our positive social impact. To help drive the type of transformational change necessary to improve people’s lives, we launched the Unilever Foundation in 2012. The Foundation focuses on a select number of unmet social needs that our business can play a unique role in addressing. Additionally, it is one important action we are taking to meet the Unilever Sustainable Living Plan’s ambitious goal of helping more than one billion people improve their health and well-being while creating a sustainable future. It reinforces my firm conviction of the power of partnerships, and I am honoured to work with some of the best in the field. We have made good progress and could not have achieved as much as we have to date without the drive and dedication of our partners. In the first year, the Foundation positively impacted the lives of more than 14.5 million people1 via: • Creating multi-faceted partnerships with five leading global organizations. • Connecting with consumers on social issues through brands they know and trust. • Advocating for policies designed to address some of today’s global health challenges. • Providing critical resources in response to emergencies and ongoing community needs. • Supporting programmes in communities where we live and work. • Identifying new ways to engage our employees in important social issues. We have learnt a lot that has helped Unilever’s commitment to being a force for good, as building a better society goes hand-in-hand with building a more sustainable business. Now it’s time to set the bar even higher. PAUL POLMAN Chief Executive Officer, Unilever DELIVERING POSITIVE SOCIAL IMPACT BUILDING OUR BUSINESS PAUL POLMAN, CEO UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE 2 UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE 3 W FP/Shehab Uddin © UNICEF/Ghana13/Quarmyne 1 The number of lives positively impacted is based on actual reported beneficiaries and estimates of planned outcomes by our global and local partners associated with funds disbursed in 2012, as well as Lifebuoy’s School of Five programme methodology where applicable.
  • 3. UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE4 5 EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT DISASTER & EMERGENCY RELIEF ADVOCACY CONNECTING WITH CONSUMERS SELF-ESTEEM BASIC NUTRITION Nearly 870 million people suffer from chronic hunger. CLEAN DRINKING WATER Over one billion people do not have access to safe drinking water. SANITATION An estimated 2.5 billion people lack access to improved sanitation. HYGIENE More than 2 million children under five years old die from diarrhoea and acute respiratory infections annually. Women earn just 10% of the world’s income, yet work two-thirds of the world’s working hours. GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS UNILEVER FOUNDATION MISSION OUR APPROACH OUR IMPACTS LOCAL PROGRAMME SUPPORT ©UNICEF/Ghana13/Quarmyne The Unilever Foundation’s strategic framework is comprised of six pillars designed to deliver positive social value while growing our business. 1 WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme: Progress on Drinking Water & Sanitation. 2013 Update. 2 Figures are based on actual reported beneficiaries and estimates of planned outcomes by UNICEF in conjunction with funds dispersed in 2012. Together with our global and local partners, we are contributing to improving the quality of life for individuals in need and creating a sustainable future. The Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life though the provision of hygiene, sanitation, access to clean drinking water, basic nutrition enhancing self esteem. Access to sanitation is a basic human right. However, billions of people lack access to toilets and are forced to defecate in the open, putting them at risk of preventable diseases such as diarrhoea and malnutrition. In addition to improving a child’s health, investments in sanitation contribute to girls attending and remaining in school and affords dignity and privacy, particularly for women. To help address this crisis, the Unilever Foundation is supporting UNICEF’s Community Approaches to Total Sanitation (‘CATS’). CATS aims to eliminate open defecation by changing people’s behaviour and promoting demand for sanitation. With our support, UNICEF has implemented and expanded CATS in Gambia, Ghana, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, South Sudan, Sudan and Vietnam. The Foundation is also supporting hygiene and sanitation programmes in Brazil, India, Indonesia, Myanmar, South Africa, and Turkey. UNICEF is also one of our primary partners in times of disaster and emergency relief. CHANGING BEHAVIOUR, SAVING LIVES PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS • 1,500 CATS facilitators have been trained in triggering, a process designed to help families understand the link between open defecation and disease; this has resulted in people constructing their own toilets. • 549,000 people in 1,079 communities have been reached through triggering. Of these communities, 523 have achieved open defecation free status (‘ODF’) with nearly 200,000 people living in ODF environments. • Over 14,000 school children in Nicaragua, South Sudan, Sudan and Vietnam have been reached with programmes that help to ensure safe access to water, sanitation and hygiene in school; work is ongoing to reach an additional 29 schools. • Together with Governments and partners, UNICEF has developed national sanitation policies and guidelines, as well as supported technical capacity for sanitation programming. • Nearly 500 business owners, masons and artisans have received training in sanitation marketing in Gambia, Sudan, Pakistan, Philippines and Vietnam. • Nearly 600,000 enrolled school children in India will be reached with handwashing programmes through a partnership with the government of Madhya Pradesh, Unilever in India, and UNICEF. • 190,000 children in South Africa will benefit from hygiene education and/or communications.

UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE6 7 PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO REDUCING HUNGER AND POVERTY Malnutrition affects millions of children worldwide, robbing them of a bright future. When children chronically lack the right nutrition, the resulting damage to their cognitive and physical development can be irreversible. Malnourished children are more susceptible to illness and are likely to be less productive members of society. The call to action is clear: Investing in nutrition is an investment in the next generation. To help combat malnutrition, the Unilever Foundation is partnering with the World Food Programme (‘WFP’) through Project Laser Beam (‘PLB’). This public–private partnership aims to address child malnutrition holistically by tackling both direct and underlying causes. We are also supporting the WFP’s school meals programme in a number of countries, including the Philippines and Pakistan, as well as emergency preparedness in Malaysia. BANGLADESH The Unilever Foundation is supporting PLB by working with the following partners to improve nutrition, access to clean drinking water and sanitation, hygiene practices, and livelihoods. Across all initiatives we are utilizing our proven Lifebouy handwashing model. • WFP: Providing school meals to more than 100,000 children to improve their nutritional status and encourage regular school attendance. • WaterAid: Helping provide access to safe drinking water, sanitation facilities and hygiene training. • BRAC and JITA: Supporting programmes that uplift more than 3,000 women from poverty through education, skills-based training and micro-financing opportunities. • Friendship: Ensuring that mothers and their children receive family planning education, pre- and post-natal care, and primary health care. INDONESIA PLB, with support from the Foundation, has launched an innovative, local food-based school meals programme in cooperation with several other private and public organisations. This programme takes a holistic approach to child malnutrition by: • Using locally sourced ingredients. • Cooking with essential micronutrient powders. • Providing education on nutrition, health and hygiene. Results indicate that when children receive a hot, nutritious meal every day at school, they are more likely to come to school and are able to concentrate better in class. For nearly 870 MILLIONpeople today - one out of every eight on the planet – hunger is a battle that is being lost and children are among the most affected.1 12 MILLION+school meals distributed. 170,000+lives Improved.2 PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS EVERY ONE CAMPAIGN To help end the injustice of millions of children dying before they reach their 5th birthday, the Unilever Foundation has made a three-year, €15 million commitment to Save the Children’s biggest-ever global campaign, EVERY ONE. Our partnership will improve the lives of 2 million children and their mothers by 2016 by providing access to health workers, basic nutrition and life-saving interventions. Additionally, we are working together to create a platform that generates public and political support for child survival. In addition, the Unilever Foundation has been funding Save the Children’s local programmes in Australia, Bolivia, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Italy, Japan, New Zealand and Peru. As part of on-going work in disaster and emergency response, the Foundation is also supporting Save the Children’s Humanitarian Health Workers programme to significantly scale-up frontline health capacity so that many more children’s lives can be saved in emergencies. Lastly, we are supporting Save the Children’s emergency work in Myanmar, Somalia and Syria. Unilever is working with Save the Children before, during and after an emergency strikes, making sure children caught up in emergencies can get the urgent care they need. The partnership has identified five priority countries based on where the needs are greatest and where Unilever has a presence: Bangladesh, China, Kenya, Nigeria and Pakistan. The results expected by the end of the first year of our work together include: • 5,237 health service providers (e.g. doctors, nurses and community health workers) will be trained to deliver life-saving assistance. • 558,382 women and children will directly benefit from health and nutrition services and education resulting from the training we support. • 200 health clinics will be improved in Bangladesh, Kenya, Nigeria and Pakistan through provision of equipment and infrastructure enhancements. • 1.9 million community members across the five priority countries will benefit indirectly as a result of our support. • 1.14 million community members will indirectly benefit from a stronger national health system in Nigeria. • Greater advocacy for improved health and nutrition policies through collaborations with the Governments of Bangladesh, China, Kenya, Nigeria and Pakistan. • New research in Nigeria and Bangladesh to help Governments improve on their health and nutrition service delivery approaches. Every year 6.9 MILLIONchildren die before their 5th birthday, mostly from preventable diseases or simply because they don’t have enough food to eat.1 Over 1 MILLIONpeople will have access to health workers, basic nutrition and life saving interventions.2 GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS 1 Levels Trends in Child Mortality.

  • 5. UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE8 9 PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS SAVING LIVES THROUGH HANDWASHING SAFE DRINKING WATER Diarrhoea and pneumonia are leading causes of death in children under five1 . More than half of these early child deaths are due to conditions that could be prevented or treated with access to simple, affordable interventions. The Unilever Foundation and PSI, a global health organisation, are working together to avert these preventable deaths by teaching people about the importance of handwashing and increasing access to clean drinking water in parts of Africa and Asia, respectively. Through our partnership, we are providing funds, expertise and products to help change health and hygiene behaviours of families and children in need while simultaneously working toward Unilever’s Sustainable Living Plan targets around handwashing and access to safe, affordable drinking water. The Unilever Foundation and PSI have been working with local governments across Kenya, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe – 3 countries where the practice of handwashing with soap is low. By employing Lifebuoy’s School of Five methodology, we have reached: • Over 200,000 children in 400 schools on how to improve their hygiene behaviours by getting them into the habit of correctly and consistently washing their hands with soap at key occasions during the day. Additionally, as part of our goal to make safe drinking water available and affordable, the Foundation and PSI have launched WaterworksTM in Bhopal, India. WaterworksTM trains women in delivering and teaching families how to use Pureit water purifiers. As a result of our combined efforts: • 75 women from the communities have been trained as Waterworkers, in turn, helping to improve their livelihoods. • 15,000 households in need have received free Pureit home water purifiers. Every year, more than 2 MILLIONchildren do not reach their fifth birthday due to deaths from diarrhoea and pneumonia.1 Nearly 800 MILLIONpeople do not have access to safe drinking water.2 PROGRAMME HIGHLIGHTS COMBATING POVERTY, IMPROVING LIVELIHOODS The Unilever Foundation’s partnership with Oxfam is improving lives around the world through support of programmes designed to uplift individuals out of poverty – particularly women – and to deliver good nutrition and clean, safe drinking water. Our partnership is supporting programmes at a country level designed to deliver positive social impact in one or more areas of shared interest. An estimated 1.2 BILLIONpeople live in extreme poverty.1 More than 500,000meals have been distributed and tens of thousands of people have been fed via Oxfam’s collaboration with local food banks in the UK.2 1 MILLION+ people will be reached with handwashing behaviour change programmes and 75,000 PEOPLE will receive access to free safe drinking water.3 GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS • UK: The partnership is supporting women and their families living on or below the poverty line with basic nutrition. • Thailand: Women in Yala, Narathiwat and Pattani have received education on sustainable agriculture and business to help them improve the productivity of their land and, in turn, their livelihoods. • Australia: Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders have received health and healing services to help close the life expectancy gap between indigenous and non-indigenous communities. • Cambodia: Villages are benefiting from building clean water systems and toilets, providing water filters and promoting hygiene - all to help prevent the spread of infectious diseases. • Mexico: A host of initiatives have been launched to improve people’s health and well-being around access to safe drinking water, food safety and health promotion. Additionally, resources have been deployed to address food insecurity by helping farmers improve the yields from their crops. • Liberia: Support for the West Africa Emergency Fund and women’s agricultural initiative is helping to increase production of local crops and reduce individuals’ vulnerability resulting from food shortages and price increases. 1 Source: The Millennium Development Goals Report 2013, United Nations. 2 Figures are based on actual reported beneficiaries and estimates of planned outcomes by Oxfam in conjunction with funds disbursed in 2012. 1 Source: Pneumonia and Diarrhoea.

The Unilever Foundation has played an important role in supporting the company’s public policy advocacy efforts on global health issues. We have done this by participating in multi-stakeholder dialogues and advocating for change with a range of external partners and stakeholders including: Many of our brands are committed to investing in critical social issues through product innovations and benefits, behaviour change programmes, and consumer engagement campaigns. By ensuring greater alignment around issues of importance to our business and engaging our consumers through brands they know and trust, we are able to achieve greater scale and impact in building a better society, while accelerating Unilever’s growth. We do this through initiatives that are: 3 MILLIONschool meals were provided for children thanks to the support of consumers participating in our retail campaign with Coopernic. BRAND DRIVEN • Domestos, Unilever’s leading toilet hygiene brand, is supporting UNICEF’s sanitation programmes for a second consecutive year through its Destroy Germs, Create Smiles campaign. • Wall’s ice cream, one of our biggest global brands, launched the Share a Smile, Help a Child campaign to raise awareness and funds for Save the Children’s vital work worldwide. RETAILER DRIVEN • All for One – Against Child Hunger, a consumer campaign co-created with Coopernic, one of our European retailers, and several Unilever brands, is benefiting the World Food Programme in its fight against malnutrition through school meal programmes. SOCIAL MEDIA DRIVEN • Though our partnership with PSI and Facebook, individuals can make online contributions to support the provision of safe drinking water and the free distribution of Unilever’s Pureit water filters. THE BUSINESS CASE FOR ENGAGING CONSUMERS IS CLEAR AND COMPELLING AS IT: • Generates awareness of issues and appeals to consumers’ sense of social purpose • Creates new markets for our brands • Increases product sales and uplifts brand equity • Raises funds for our partners’ programmes • Serving as one of the founding members of the Global Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing, a coalition of stakeholders committed to supporting universal promotion and practice of proper handwashing. • Contributing to global initiatives such as the UN Secretary-General’s Every Woman Every Child movement which aims to save the lives of 16 million women and children by 2015. • Advocating for Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene policies on Capitol Hill with PSI around Global Handwashing Day. • Raising awareness of the Children’s Rights and Business Principles which identify actions that businesses should take to respect and support children’s rights; the Principles were developed by UNICEF, the UN Global Compact, and Save the Children. • Uplifting awareness of the global sanitation crisis in support of World Toilet Day through the launch of the first Domestos Toilet Academy, in partnership with the World Toilet Organization, as well as advocacy and innovative consumer- based initiatives. • Supporting global movements such as Scaling Up Nutrition, a collective effort with governments, the United Nations, the private sector, NGOs, civil society and others to improve nutrition, with a particular focus on the crucial first 1,000 days of life. WORKING WITH OTHERS, WE CAN DRIVE SYSTEMIC AND SCALABLE CHANGE AND, IN TURN, CREATE A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE. • Dove, with its long-standing commitment to real beauty, and the Unilever Foundation, are working with local partners around the world to deliver self-esteem education for young people. • Lipton, Signal, and Domestos partnered with UNICEF France and two of our retailers, Leclerc and Casino, on a multi-brand retail promotion designed to support a programme that improves access to water and sanitation in schools located in Kenya and UNICEF’s Community Approaches to Total Sanitation.
  • 7. UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE UNILEVER FOUNDATION: 2013 UPDATE | PAGE12 13 The issues the world is facing require new ways of working. It is unacceptable that millions of children die from preventable diseases and malnutrition, and others lack access to life-saving resources when affordable solutions exist. To address these issues, we are supporting several innovative initiatives: LOCAL PROGRAMME SUPPORT EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT RESPONSE STRATEGY OTHER INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS While the main focus of the Unilever Foundation is on programmes with our global partners, we recognise that some countries have specific requirements optimally addressed by smaller, niche partnerships. These partnerships deliver programmes aligned with the mission of the Foundation but are tailored to meet specific local requirements. In many instances, such localised partnerships complement the work done by our global partners. This strategy ensures the Foundation remains focused on our commitment to improving the quality of life by addressing health and well-being while providing tailored support to the local communities we serve. We recognise the impact our 173,000 employees worldwide can have in helping to address some of the social challenges of our day and the resulting benefits of their involvement to our business. In 2012, we launched initiatives designed to build awareness of the Unilever Foundation and engage employees. The Foundation Challenge, a company- wide search for six internal ambassadors who would serve as ‘champions’ for our partnerships, was one of our most successful initiatives engaging employees in nearly 100 countries. Additionally, Unilever offices around the world activated team-oriented and individual initiatives such as food drives, fundraisers, and volunteer support at youth centres and schools. Together, our small actions made big contributions to the world around us. Employees in over 100 COUNTRIESparticipated in Foundation-related activities in 2012. DISASTER EMERGENCY RELIEF The Unilever Foundation is committed to helping communities afflicted by natural disasters and other emergencies. Given the increasing prevalence of these humanitarian crises, the Foundation has developed a robust emergency response strategy to deliver life-saving solutions in areas where we can make the greatest impact in times of need: health and hygiene, basic nutrition, and access to clean drinking water and sanitation. Our 3-pronged strategy focuses on: • Millennium Villages Project: Working with the Earth Institute at Columbia University and Lifebuoy, we are supporting initiatives to improve sanitation and hygiene processes. Together, we aim to decrease the incidence of diarrhoeal diseases, promote gender equality, increase school attendance, enhance communities’ productivity and well-being, and improve public policy. • Water Sanitation for the Urban Poor (‘WSUP’): Together with WSUP, we developed the Clean Team, a new business model, offering an innovative sanitation service to urban households located in West Africa. Additionally, we are working with WSUP and Lifebuoy to improve children’s handwashing practices in South Asia and Africa. • Project Laser Beam: This public-private partnership between the Unilever Foundation, the World Food Programme, GAIN, Mondelez and DSM takes a holistic approach to addressing child malnutrition by tackling direct and underlying causes through the creation of a replicable and sustainable model piloted in Bangladesh and Indonesia. Creating opportunities for employees to give back is good for society, our employees, and our business as it: TOGETHER WE ARE HELPING TO PROVIDE INDIVIDUALS IN NEED WITH AFFORDABLE SOLUTIONS, EFFECTIVE PRODUCTS, AND PRACTICAL INFORMATION THROUGH NEW TYPES OF PARTNERSHIPS. © Jonathan Hyams/ Save the Children • Preparedness: Helping communities strengthen their capacity to better prepare in advance of an emergency. • Emergency Relief: Providing basic human needs and life-saving resources such as food and hygiene products immediately following an emergency. • Rehabilitation: Working with communities to help their recovery in the weeks and months following an emergency. In addition to launching disaster and emergency response pilot programmes with Save the Children, UNICEF and the World Food Programme, we are working with various business functions, brand teams and employees to leverage the full scope of our resources and the positive impacts we can make during such challenging times. • Helps to improve the lives of those in need • Fulfils employees’ sense of social purpose • Strengthens employee pride and creates ambassadors for business critical issues
