NO.8 16 enterprises launch the Initiative for Sustainable Development Actions from Enterprises
On October 24, 16 enterprises, including Alibaba group, China Three Gorges Corporation, Yili Group and Yida group, launched the
Initiative for Sustainable Development Actions from Enterprises at the first Sustainable Development Forum, promising to implement the sustainable development goals and carry out four key actions. The chairman or chief executive officer is the main promoter of the initiative to incorporate the concept of sustainable development into a company's business development strategy.
Reason for listing:
Business is an important force to achieve sustainable development goals. While the
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development enjoys a prosperous future but with a twisted development process, the private sector has received unprecedented attention, and the business community has demonstrated unprecedented determination for actions. The initiative is not only a collective statement and commitment, but also a course of action, reflecting that Chinese enterprises are leading the transformation of development philosophy and shaping a sustainable business model by example. In an era full of challenges and opportunities, making business a solution instead of the source of a problem, is an example that an excellent enterprise should set, which is also a kind of business wisdom that foresees the future and adapts to changes.
