About this Report

(GRI 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5)

This is NParks' first combined Annual and Sustainability Report, covering our sustainability initiatives and performance for the financial year 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026. The report encompasses NParks' operational footprint across office premises, parks, nature reserves, roadside greenery, state land greenery, and Istana and Parliament House grounds.

Many of the environmental outcomes NParks pursues are achieved through collaborative efforts with multiple agencies, community partners, and regional counterparts. While this report focuses on areas where NParks can make direct contributions, it also highlights our participation in broader sustainability initiatives that require collective action to achieve meaningful impact.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards (2021), a globally recognised framework for transparent and consistent disclosure of material sustainability topics, performance data, and management approaches. Internal controls have been put in place to support the accuracy and reliability of the data presented, though external assurance has not been obtained for this reporting period. We remain committed to strengthening our sustainability reporting processes over time and will assess the feasibility of external assurance for future reports.

How to read this report

Within each of the first three chapters, content is grouped by material topic; these are the areas in which our work has the most significant effects on the environment, on people and on the economy. Each topic is generally presented in two parts. The section headed “Material Topic” explains why the subject matters, the effects our work has and how we manage them, while the “Year in Review” section records our initiatives and activities undertaken during the reporting period of FY 2025.

Beyond these chapters, the report covers the Garden City Fund, our registered charity, and brings together our performance data in Facts and Figures, including progress against our GreenGov.SG targets. Subsequently we present the process followed for determining our material topics, highlight our stakeholder engagement channels, and list our publications and membership associations. The final sections comprise the GRI Content Index, which maps each disclosure to where it appears in the report, and our financial review and statements.
