Leveraging SDGS for Business Growth and Corporate Responsibility

Abstract

The business environment of today does not just make companies compete based on their financial metrics; they also compete on their environmental and social credentials. In a world facing challenges such as climate change, resource scarcity, and social inequality, there is increasing pressure on businesses to take a sustainable approach. The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted in 2015, provide a framework for businesses to integrate their strategies with global sustainability efforts and fuel innovation and growth [1].
