What led to the creation of SDG Assessment?
SDG Assessment was conceptualized from our founder’s work at the Centre for Sustainable Action, a UK based cooperative that supports SMEs and entrepreneurs to become sustainably managed enterprises. It was inspired by our combined interests, expertise and passion for inspiring organizations to implement ethical and environmental practices, while recognizing that lack of human action has created a sustainability implementation gap within the SME, government and finance sectors.
Our initiative is focused on the improvement of SME sustainability and understanding of interconnections to nature. Fostering responsible interaction with the planet, enabling SMEs, governments and financial institutions to achieve sustainable objectives including net zero emissions.
