Sustainability
We help in ESG road-mapping, guided by ESG policy and development of ESG metrics supported by sustainability communication. Our approach has been unique following the process of co-creation that simultaneously builds internal capacities. We thus achieve mainstreaming sustainability by helping in building stewardship of the organization towards the SDGs while addressing the business goals. Practicing Sustainability to the Advantage of All is our mission statement.
We assist in the development of internal and external communication and marketing strategies on sustainability. Our expertiselies in uncovering or deciphering “sustainability” to material gains or building a brand or making the organization future ready.
We have developed methodologies to assess organization’s sustainability literacy and maturity to come up with customized sustainability action plans. In addition, we have the experience to prepare strategic sustainability action plans at national and sub-national levels and also for urban areas. Eco-city Sangli in Maharashtra, Green City Melaka in Malaysia, Strategic Action Plans for the States of Maharashtra and Uttarakhand and Multisectoral Action Plan for Sustainable Plastic Management in Bangladesh are some of the examples.
