    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do we need to align with all 17 SDGs?

    No. Most organisations focus on a subset of SDGs that reflect their operations and strategic priorities. We help you identify and prioritise the goals that matter most.

    Not mandatory, but increasingly expected—especially under frameworks like GRI and CSRD. It enhances transparency and stakeholder engagement.

    We help you develop KPIs and indicators based on SDG targets and your organisational context—using both quantitative and qualitative metrics.

    Can SDG alignment improve our ESG rating or investor appeal?

    Yes. It strengthens your ESG profile, supports responsible investment, and improves performance in ESG benchmarks.

    Is SDG alignment relevant for SMEs or non-listed organisations?

    Absolutely. SDG alignment benefits organisations of all sizes—enhancing strategy, stakeholder engagement, and sustainability communications.
