Finding
The SDGs Corporate Tracker (https://www.ods.gov.co/es/sdg-corporate-tracker) is a virtual tool allowing the collection and standardized presentation of information on companies' contribution to the SDGs achievement in Colombia. Through its website, companies can register and access a survey of 300 questions created jointly by the government, representatives of the private sector, and experts. Survey questions are grouped following the three dimensions of Sustainable Development: economic, social, and environmental.
Following the COVID-19 disruption, the SDGs Corporate Tracker included an additional chapter on the impacts of the pandemic in the private sector and actions taken by companies in response to the crisis.
Once a company completes the survey, the tool automatically associates qualitative and quantitative variables obtained from the responses to 75 SDG goals in whose achievement the business sector plays a fundamental role. Then, the website shows the results to the user.
The SDGs Corporate Tracker makes it possible to highlight the business sector actions contributing to the SDG's achievement while supporting participating companies' strategic sustainable planning.
