These five are the most priority SDG for us and, therefore, are those that we emphasize most, but we also act decisively on some of the other 17 Goals, for which we have set objectives, reported since the emergence of the SDGs. To this end, the 2019-2021 Endesa Sustainability Plan sets out the roadmap for the next three years in order to contribute to the 2030 Agenda, aligning our sustainability strategy with this universal framework.
The “Our Performance” chapter of the 2018 Sustainability Report shows the detail of our contribution over 2018 to each of the sustainable development objectives that we are acting on through our business.
