ESG and Corporate Responsibility

For over two centuries we’ve been empowering people who want to learn, discover, create, and lead in their fields. We create and share high-quality, relevant, and inclusive content that empowers people, protects our planet, helps our stakeholders achieve their goals, and furthers our positive impact. We advance knowledge and learning across the globe by removing barriers to progress – both inside and outside our walls.

Our Approach to ESG

Our ESG strategy is guided by:

• Our commitment to being a company that continues to make people proud through our culture, operations, and guiding principles.
• Our responsibility to lead global change on issues where we have expertise through our resources, reputation, and reach—elevating evidence-based knowledge on environmental and social topics shaping society.

As a founding signatory for Publishing Declares and members of the UN Global Compact and SDG Publishers Compact, there are three UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that underpin our ESG strategy: quality education, reducing inequalities, and climate action.
