Foundation for EcoOnline's ESG strategy and KPIs
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
EcoOnline has chosen the UN SDGs to embrace as the framework to build our ESG strategy and define KPIs. The SDGs provide us with a comprehensive and universally recognized roadmap.
Through a rigorous assessment process, we have analyzed all 17 goals and 169 targets to determine that the following SDGs align closely with our core values, business operations, and potential for impact.
In this document, we will emphasize with a few examples on how EcoOnline meet the different target identification.
