Sofis Solutions joins the Forward Faster initiative of the United Nations Global Compact

Montevideo, September 26, 2023. 

Sofis Solutions has taken on a new commitment to accelerate progress on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda. The initiative is Forward Faster, driven by the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), which urges business leaders worldwide to adopt measurable, credible, and ambitious actions in 5 areas of focus (gender equality, climate action, decent work, finance and investment, and water resilience).

Within the framework of the High-Level Week of the United Nations General Assembly, held in New York, the SDG Summit took place, reviewing the status of SDG implementation, providing Heads of State and Government with policy guidance on how to mobilize actions to accelerate progress on the 2030 Agenda and its 17 Goals. 

During the Summit, the Forward Faster initiative of the United Nations Global Compact was presented, aiming to increase accountability and transparency by calling on companies to publicly declare their commitments and highlight the actions they will take to meet the presented goals. 

Sofis Solutions is one of the first companies to join the initiative and has committed to working in four of the focus areas:

Gender Equality

  • Equal pay for work of equal value by 2030.

Climate Action

  • Contribute to a just transition by taking concrete actions that address the social impacts of climate mitigation and adaptation measures in partnership with stakeholders such as workers, unions, communities, and suppliers.

Decent Work

  • 100 percent of employees across the organization will earn a living wage by 2030.
  • Establish a joint action plan with contractors, supply chain partners, and other key stakeholders to work toward achieving living wages and/or decent incomes with measurable milestones and set deadlines.

Finance and Investment

  • Align corporate investment – to the greatest extent possible – with SDG policies and strategies, and set objectives, monitor, and report on the amount and proportion of such investments in the SDGs.

Through this new commitment, Sofis Solutions will annually report to the United Nations Global Compact on the progress of the selected action lines. It will also continue collaborating with the United Nations to help address global challenges and advance toward a more just, inclusive, and sustainable world.
