Sustainability

Community of solvers

Our network and team of experts are ready to work with you. Accountants, tax consultants, strategists, economists, data analysts, biologists, human rights experts, environmentalists and sociologists: we combine a rich pallet of experience and knowledge at home and abroad with the will and intrinsic commitment to sustainable business. 

Creating a sustainable business requires a broad approach and outlook, especially outside of our own organization. That is why we work together with universities, research institutes and committed change makers. From Metabolic to the Deltaplan Biodiversity Restoration Foundation. On the basis of inspiration sessions, knowledge exchange and partnerships, together we take small steps towards solutions to major challenges.

Data and technology

Our people-focused approach is supported and driven by technology at all times. We use all the opportunities that data and technology offer and deploy technology effectively so that it accelerates sustainable progress. Only then can we achieve the desired objectives and the right results.

At PwC, we use technology through a combination of capacity, tooling and partnerships. We work with major software providers such as SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, Microsoft, Google and Workiva. From selection to implementation, we always have the right specialist knowledge in-house, so we can support our clients at any time.

What we ourselves are doing about ESG

Like our clients, PwC is going through a transformation process. Each day we are putting all of our efforts into growing in the ESG field. 

We are working hard to achieve that goal. For example, we have integrated four sustainable development goals into our business processes and strategy and are working with a large team to achieve gender equality, decent work, reduce inequality and take climate action. 

In addition, as PwC we have a global ambition to operate ‘net zero’ by 2030. This means  we will reduce our absolute emissions to the maximum, with a minimum of fifty percent. We compensate for the remainder by, among other things, planting new forests to remove more CO₂ from the air. Of course, we also apply our knowledge and expertise pro bono to impact-first organizations striving to solve environmental or social issues.
