Sustainability Challenge: Sojitz's Long-Term Sustainability Vision for 2050
We aim to create sustainable growth for both Sojitz and society by working to help achieve a decarbonized society through our business activities, and by responding to human rights issues, including those within our supply chains.
We believe that it is our responsibility to help achieve a decarbonized society and respect human rights in our supply chains. Sojitz Group has established this long-term sustainability vision in order to continue to "create value and prosperity" as set forth in its corporate statement, in light of global trends toward setting 2050 decarbonization goals based on the Paris Agreement, as well as broader global issues addressed in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
