THE UN GLOBAL GOALS

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.

To contribute positive change for people and the planet, we aligned our sustainability and business strategies with the Global Goals.
