El Dorado has worked tirelessly to create a plan with action pillars based on connections to communities and the planet. El Dorado is recognized as the first airport certified by the Colombian Institute of Technical Standards and Certification (ICONTEC) to use 100% renewable energy, sourced from the roof installations and other projects. ICONTEC has also designated El Dorado a Platinum Member after its fourth Zero Waste certification. El Dorado supports neighboring communities through uniquely rewarding initiatives. "Plastic for Smiles" was a project that recycled 4 tons of plastic into the construction of 3 playgrounds. El Dorado also installed a system of 12 solar panels in the General Santander school in Engativá and installed 5 rainwater recycling systems, so that neighboring communities can use captured rainwater for floor cleaning, irrigation, flushing, and animal feed. In 2022, El Dorado granted 548 English and robotics scholarships to strengthen the technical skills and competencies of kids from district schools.​​
