About us
We want to move the world in the right direction.
We believe that achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is crucial for society – both from a global, national, and local perspective. This endeavour will require significant changes for both civil society and businesses. Many industries will need to undergo fundamental transformations, and innovation will be vital in reaching the sustainability goals.
National governments, public bodies, local authorities, as well as societal, business, and individual actors must take much greater responsibility than they currently do. There are significant variations among these actors in terms of their willingness to contribute to a more sustainable society, making it even more challenging to achieve the objectives.
