UN Millennium Development Goals Navigator
As part of our commitment to the United Nations (UN) Global Compact, we know that some of the developing countries in which we operate face critical sustainability issues.
This year we commenced mapping our Community Contributions spend against the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) recognising that the intent of the MDGs align with our sustainability values and present a consistent global framework for measuring tangible progress.
This year our assets identified a small number of Community Contributions projects that directly support the MDGs. As we are continuing to develop our approach to correlating our spend with the MDGs, we aim to further enhance our approach to reporting against the MDGs in the next reporting period.
