Overview
Consumers are increasingly concerned about the future and expect organisations to be more
sustainable and engaged. They recognise that their financial choices can become a catalyst for
change.
The United Nation’s Business for 2030 initiative is re-framing sustainable development and
corporate sustainability aligned to the Development Agenda and Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs), paving the way for businesses to demonstrate the central role they can play in
both sustainable development and human prosperity. This means that businesses need to act
beyond economic pro ts to implement sustainable business strategies to invest in innovation
and long-term growth, while also considering their impact on people and the planet. Leaders
should possess the right knowledge to evaluate and implement sustainable strategies for a
value-driven approach in this circular economy.
