United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

We are committed in our operations to promoting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The goals are also known as the 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They aim at eliminating poverty and achieving sustainable development, where the environment, economy and people are taken into account equally.
 
Among the SDGs, goals 8, 12 and 13 are particularly relevant to Airam’s activities.

The Global Compact is a corporate responsibility initiative under the UN whose aim is to promote the ecological, social and financial responsibility of companies and communities.
