ESG & Sustainability

A signatory to the United Nations Global Compact since 2016 

We are committed to making sustainability one of the key drivers of our business strategy, and to ensuring this approach is reflected in the services we deliver to our clients.  

We actively support the 10 Principles of the UN Global Compact relating to human rights, labour standards, the environment, and the fight against corruption.  

Progress on implementing these principles is reported annually to our stakeholders.  

Commitment to the Science Based Target initiative

In January 2023, we committed to the Science Based Target initiative, the partnership promoted by the UN Global Compact (UNGC), the World Resource Institute (WRI), the CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) and the WWF with the aim of reducing CO2 and other climate-altering gas emissions in line with the indications of climate science. Our commitment includes a major undertaking over the next two years, during which time we will define both a near-term emission reduction strategy, and long-term targets to reach net-zero by 2050.

Our network 

We also participate in national and international forums dedicated to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability. 

Since 2016 these include Fondazione Sodalitas, the Italian partner of CSR Europe, as well as Transparency International and its Italian working group Business Integrity Forum, which supports voluntary anticorruption initiatives.  

In 2022, we renewed our partnership with Valore D, the first business association in Italy to advocate gender equality and an inclusive corporate culture. 

Our approach to Sustainability 

Our path towards sustainability involves both internal and external measures; 

• Internally, it means initiatives designed to increase awareness of more sustainable ways to approach our business and carry out our activities; 
• Externally, it means developing innovative external services which generate positive outcomes for our customers’ projects and businesses, as well as for our stakeholders, society and the environment.
