“The impact of this tragedy is felt by us all. It is in times like these that we must come together and support those in need. We have decided to make the donation to UNICEF to contribute to their ongoing efforts to support the most vulnerable,” says President and CEO Hilde Merete Aasheim. 

Hydro has 23 employees in Türkiye, working at offices in Istanbul and Ankara. All employees and their families are safe and accounted for. Many Hydro employees in Europe have a deep connection with both Türkiye and Syria. 

Hydro is a long standing signature partner of UNICEF Norway. The donation comes in addition to the 4.8 million NOK committed through the extended partnership agreement signed in February 2022.
