Mission & Vision

At the heart of our work lies a powerful belief: that Sustainability, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles are not just best practices—they are essential catalysts for sustainable transformation across Africa and beyond.

We are committed to promoting thought leadership and raising awareness of ESG and sustainability across government, business, and civil society. By supporting the integration of sustainability & ESG principles into everyday practice, we aim to drive meaningful change that resonates across sectors.

As Africa intensifies its focus on sustainability &  ESG, we are here to foster a sense of urgency—because the time to act is now. Through learning opportunities, collaboration, and innovation, we are nurturing a vibrant network of professionals dedicated to advancing sustainability & ESG values.

We believe in creating shared value. By advocating for the economic potential of sustainability & ESG, and providing practical guidance on governance, tools, and implementation, we empower organisations to lead with purpose and impact.

Beyond our professional mission, we are proud to give back. A portion of delegate fees supports charitable initiatives, youth mentorship programmes, and our student innovation competition, ensuring the next generation of ESG leaders has the tools to succeed.

And finally, we strive to build all of this on a foundation of financial viability, ensuring that our mission is not only impactful but also sustainable for the long term.

Together, we’re shaping a future where ESG is at the core of growth, governance, and opportunity.
