Quantifying impact is not only possible, it’s essential.
What are the UN SDGs?
The United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. They address the global challenges we face, including poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice. This agenda consists of 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) and 169 targets that are in need of solutions that the private sector can deliver.
​
These goals are interrelated, with the UN recognizing “that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.” This means that every bit helps, and each of our companies can make a difference.
We need to empower and enable companies to understand and manage their impacts not just because it’s good business, but because it's the only chance we have to solve these SDG's.
