Impact Strategy

ESG: more than just a word; it’s about meaning.

Even before the acronym ESG gained ground in the market, we had already been investing heavily in Social, Environmental, and Governance issues.

At MRV&CO, the commitment to sustainability in civil construction means having an impact strategy that goes beyond our operational planning and economic performance. It’s about seeing the bigger picture of global trends and challenges. And it’s also about looking at our own backyards and neighborhoods, bringing answers to demands and questions coming from all our stakeholders.

Thus, we mapped the key sustainability challenges for the civil construction industry. And we understand that the UN 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the most effective ways of thinking about strategies and action plans to work and overcome these challenges:

3The Big Challenges

Management and relationships with people (Employees, Clients, Contractors & Society)

Circular Economy in the Construction Industry (Supply Chain, Product Life Cycle and Legacy Building)

Climate Emergency & Mitigation Climate Change Adaptation

The 2030 Agenda

The United Nations (UN) initiative is a global action that represents an unprecedented political consensus by mobilizing governments, society, and the private sector to overcome the challenges facing the planet.

The 2030 Agenda has set the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as guidelines for action – translated into plans, policies, and initiatives tailored for the realities of each country, sector of the economy, and the entire society.

The deadline for achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and their 169 targets is 2030. That is why we have entered the socalled “Decade of Action,” that is, the time to focus efforts to accelerate global progress towards sustainable development
