ESG Task Force
Bridging Public-Private Collaboration to Shape a Sustainable Future
ESG Task Force is a strategic initiative that connects government entities with private sector leaders to shape effective ESG practices. It actively supports, leads, and contributes to assessment forums, ensuring that policy development is informed by industry expertise and international best practices.
In the UAE context, the Task Force aligns with national strategies such as UAE Vision 2030, the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategy, and the UAE Centennial 2071. Through this alignment, it helps translate national sustainability goals into actionable outcomes that drive innovation, economic resilience, and global ESG leadership.
The Task Force's work will complement UAE Vision 2030’s goals related to economic diversification, environmental stewardship, and low-carbon development. It will also align with the National Climate Change Plan’s priorities, such as advancing green investments and building resilience to climate impacts.
