Antecedentes
On September 25, 2015, the 193 countries that make up the United Nations Organization have signed the new sustainable development agenda called "Transform our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development". This agenda contains the 17 objectives and 169 goals that are called "Sustainable Development Goals". The SDGs focus on 5 critical areas: people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnerships.
The SDGs calls on companies around the world to promote sustainable development through the investments they make, the solutions they develop, and the corporate practices they adopt.
