Building the foundations
During FY2025, Davidson formalised its first Board-approved Environmental Policy, advanced initiatives supporting First Nations communities and strengthened enterprise risk and cybersecurity frameworks under ISO 27001 certification. Together, these measures provide clearer structures for how ESG priorities are governed and progressed.
Community and First Nations impact
Davidson’s long-term partnership with Yalari has now delivered more than $614,000 in financial, pro bono and in-kind support. In FY2025, Davidson was recognised with Yalari’s Jimbelungare 20th Anniversary Award, acknowledging a relationship that has continued since 2007.
Davidson also provided more than 100 hours of pro bono strategic advisory support to First Nations enterprises Crystal Ailan and Yurringa Energy, applying the organisation’s professional capability to support community and enterprise outcomes.
Practical environmental action
Davidson donated 10 laptops to Deadly Coders to support Indigenous STEM education and recycled a further 34 devices through PhoneCycle. The organisation also progressed work to establish an emissions baseline, providing a stronger evidence base for future environmental targets and action.
Supporting responses to homelessness
The report includes a strategic homelessness initiative aimed at enabling 500 supportive housing units by 2032, with the ambition of contributing to a reduction in rough sleeping. This work reflects Davidson’s focus on using partnerships and professional capability to support complex social challenges.
Governance and accountability
Strong governance underpins the report’s ESG agenda. Davidson recorded 2,176 hours contributed to governance activities during the year, alongside continued work on ethical leadership, risk management, cybersecurity and accountability.
The FY2025 report brings these activities together so progress can be assessed more clearly and future priorities can be built from a more transparent baseline.
