Our commitment to the SDGs
The United Nations established the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. Connectivity plays a fundamental role in achieving these goals.
Our programs impact eleven SDGs and help ensure the future of our planet.
