Global Compact and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

We are signatories to the United Nations Global Compact Brazil Network, one of the most important initiatives to engage the private sector in sustainability for a more inclusive and equitable global market. With 10 principles in the fields of human rights, work relations, environment and corruption fighting, the Global Compact reaches more than 16,000 members, among them companies and organizations based in 160 countries. We, at Algar Telecom, are committed to upholding those principles, and we apply them in our day-to-day business and in sensitizing employees, customers, and all of our relationship network. We also support the Sustainable Development Goals proposed by the UN in 2015 with a view to setting sustainable development targets to be met by 2030. Composed of 17 SDGs, as they are known for short, the 2030 Agenda seeks to ensure human rights, end poverty, fight against inequality and injustice, achieve gender equality and empower women and girls, take action against climate change, and take on other major challenges of our time.

Out of the 17 goals, we have identified ten which, due to the nature of our operation, we contribute either directly or indirectly to achieving. Click on the SDG to learn more:
