Which initiatives is the GSC undertaking in line with the 2030 SG agenda?

GSC fully embraces the 2030 SG Agenda. GSC is on the forefront in seeking suitable
environmental solutions for the Field Missions, in terms of renewable energies, water and waste
water, environmental management systems. The Environment Team at GSC also adopts innovative
processes to treat and remedy the contaminated soil. Last year, a number of more centric GSC
activities and events were organized to increase environmental awareness in the Staff as well. These
are optimal opportunities to build partnerships (Goal 17). The message is clear: nothing can be
achieved in isolation, and now more than ever the United Nations is the only possible answer to the
challenges that the world is called to meet.
