Objectives

Airport Authority Hong Kong set a bold ambition: net‑zero carbon by 2050, with a midpoint target of 55% absolute emissions reduction by 2035 (2018 baseline). The brief was to align multiple audiences—internal teams, aviation business partners, and the public—around a single pledge and roadmap; to explain complex decarbonisation targets and initiatives with clarity and rigour; to equip partners with practical guidance and a secure repository for ongoing collaboration; and to ensure accessibility, multilingual reach, and long‑term maintainability.

Approach

Together with Airport Authority Hong Kong, we designed and built the Net‑zero Carbon Pledge identity and CMS website as a unified system where brand, content, motion, and web work as one. We crafted a clear decarbonisation narrative to 2035 and 2050, supported by milestones, initiatives, case studies, and news and events. A secure Member Repository provides resources, templates, and guidance, while a modular CMS and documentation enable HKIA teams to update content with ease. The build is lightweight, governed, and instrumented for ongoing performance and analytics.

A distinctive Net‑zero identity and motion language signal progress while respecting HKIA’s brand equity. The UX is accessibility‑aligned, with intuitive wayfinding for both the public and partners. Clear roadmap storytelling, consistent iconography, and componentised layouts ensure clarity across pages and future content expansion—supporting engagement, partner onboarding, and long‑term maintainability.

Impact

The platform anchors HKIA’s climate communications and business partner engagement for its Net‑zero Carbon Pledge. It unites aviation partners under a single pledge and roadmap, translates complex targets into clear, evidence‑based storytelling, and streamlines onboarding and collaboration via a secure repository. Stakeholders can quickly find milestones, initiatives, and guidance, while the public can track progress “towards the world’s greenest airport.” The result is a cohesive, credible hub that strengthens engagement, simplifies partner workflows, and showcases HKIA’s industry leadership in carbon‑reduction management and climate action.
