The Sustainable Development Goals
NCC supports Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). NCC’s potential to contribute is integrated into our sustainability framework and the Group’s overall work to develop the business.
The UN and world leaders have decided on 17 goals to address the most urgent social, economic and environmental challenges ahead of 2030. NCC has identified four goals that the company has the greatest potential to contribute to through the Group’s solutions, as well as another ten goals that are fundamental to NCC’s operations and products.
Positive impact through core business
NCC’s core business – building and developing the built environment – has the potential to contribute to achieving the SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy), 9 (Industry, innovation and infrastructure), 11 (Sustainable cities and communities) and 12 (Responsible consumption and production).
Resource management
NCC has the potential, through its offerings, to contribute to developing products and work methods that improve the situation for both people and the environment. In this context, NCC has the potential to contribute to SDG 3 (Good health and well-being), 6 (Clean water and sanitation), 13 (Climate action), 14 (Life below water) and 15 (Life on land).
Based on our values: Honesty, Respect and Trust
NCC works with distinct and value-driven principles to promote SDG 4 (Quality education), 5 (Gender equality), and 8 (Decent work and economic growth). Cooperation and partnerships with various stakeholders are prerequisites for making the transition to a sustainable world by 2030, as reflected in 16 (Peace and justice strong institutions) and 17 (Partnerships to achieve the goal).
