| THE 2030 AGENDA FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
The 2030 Agenda for sustainable development was adopted by all replace “UN” by “United Nations (UN) member
states in 2015. It is a plan for action for people, planet and prosperity. Its scale and ambition are supported by the
17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets with the objective of providing a holistic framework for
addressing the challenge of sustainable development.
Launched in 2019, Mercuria’s Agenda 2030 program is devoted to the companies’ commitment to respecting
the SDGs. Mercuria is deploying a range of resources in support of its Agenda 2030 program, notably an internal
website, a newsletter, and has started the development of tools aiming at embodying the Agenda 2030 objectives
as an intrinsic facet of our company’s operation.
As reported in last year’s Responsibility Report, we began this part of our journey by first engaging with our
employees. We sought their direct perspectives on which SDG’s they envisioned would be most closely tied with
Mercuria’s activities. This information was taken under advice by the organization’s leadership to help in formulating
some broader, company-wide goals.
