On the 4th anniversary of the approval of 2030 Agenda and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Ferrovial is joining the campaign #globalgoalspartners in order to work on spreading these Goals of the United Nations<\/strong>, <\/strong>in collaboration with the Red Espa\u00f1ola del Pacto Mundial, an initiative to which it belongs. The goal is to contribute through their own commitment to action with the SDGs by acting as a loudspeaker to amplify awareness and work on it.<\/p>\n

In 2002, Ferrovial joined the UN Global Compact<\/a> initiative, the world’s largest sustainability initiative. Since the 2015 approval of the 2030 Agenda, along with its commitment to supporting the Ten Principles, it has worked on aligning its corporate management with the SDGs<\/strong>, thereby finding new business opportunities, improving its relationship with stakeholders, and promoting innovation.<\/p>\n

As an infrastructure company, Ferrovial is aware of the significant role the 2030 Agenda plays. Following an exhaustive analysis, a series of commitments and good practices aligned with the strategy were set forth, which would primarily focus on Objectives 6, 9 and 11. <\/strong>Similarly, by joining forces and collaborating with other actors who are working in line with the sustainable development goals, and even before then, our plan in 2009 was aimed at the Millennium Development Goals.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n

\n "We, the private sector, are ready to lead this initiative not only financially, but also by factoring our professional experience into the development and fulfillment of the objectives… Seven years ago, following the Millennium Development Goals, we decided to take action by creating the Social Infrastructure program. This program, where Ferrovial works alongside NGOs and local governments, focuses on creating easier access to water and sanitation for African and Latin American communities. We later realized that the program reflected a new way to meet basic needs and develop social projects based on our own business model. So it turned out to be an inevitable global alliance that is still working today <\/blockquote>\n\n
