Industry Workshop
Sweet 17 or a more mature approach? How SDGs and Materiality Assessment complement each other
17 aspirational Global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that should transform the world we live in. The SDGs have attracted unprecedented interest from companies, investors and policy-makers. Despite this, many businesses and organisations remain overwhelmed by the challenge of applying them in a tangible business context.
Meridian and Sanford will share their experiences in how SDGs, materiality assessment and sustainability strategies combine to add business value. An update on their current status both in New Zealand and in a global context will be provided by the Sustainable Business Council (SBC) and thinkstep.
A hands-on workshop will focus on gaining experience in how to get started using the SDGs.
