My Sustainability Goals for 2022:
As expected, the increasing attention given to the environment, social and governance issues in 2021 was expected to continue. This growth is expected to continue throughout 2022. Due to the increasing number of people who are aware of these issues, it is expected that the ESG agenda will continue to be discussed in the private sector and at government level. Due to the wide variety of environmental and social issues that are being discussed globally, it can be hard for people to keep up with all of the latest developments. This is why it is important that they are able to keep up with the most important legislation and political commitments.
