Why SDG alignment matters

The UN SDGs offer a globally recognised framework for tackling environmental, social, and economic challenges. Arthian helps organisations align their strategies and reporting to drive measurable impact and strengthen ESG performance.

What is SDG alignment?

SDG alignment maps your organisation’s activities to the 17 UN goals and 169 targets—helping you identify positive contributions, manage risks, and communicate impact. It’s increasingly expected in ESG reporting and stakeholder engagement.

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.

Is SDG alignment required for ESG reporting?

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

How do we measure our contribution to the SDGs?

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.
