As global LGBT+ inclusion lead, Pedro launched the Global LGBT+ Forum in 2020 with the purpose of bringing together local LGBT+ employee networks, further strengthening efforts to advance LGBT+ inclusion within the company. He has recently developed a multi-year strategy and framework for LGBT+ inclusion, endorsed by the Executive Committee, which sets a clear ambition and targets to empower the lives of LGBT+ people within Shell and the societies in which it operates. Since joining Shell in 2014, Pedro has been instrumental in driving the LGBT+ agenda, advocating for LGBT+ equality at all levels of the organisation, ultimately securing support from Shell’s CFO, Jessica Uhl. He has led various external initiatives, including an award-winning campaign for Pride Amsterdam in 2018, and has helped several organisations in the Netherlands in strengthening their employee resource groups and developing a robust LGBT+ inclusion strategy.
