Our commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals of Agenda 2030

As part of the week marking the 6th Anniversary of the adoption of the 2030 Agenda and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a celebration promoted by the United Nations Global Compact Spain, we share the various initiatives carried out by the Firm and its Foundation as a result of the commitment we have made to this universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and reduce inequalities.

As members of the Spanish Global Compact Network, we work especially hard to achieve SDG16 “Peace, justice and strong institutions”, which seeks to promote just, peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, as well as to facilitate access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels.

This is also the case of our foundation, the Fernando Pombo Foundation, which contributes specifically (but not only) to SDG16 target 3 “Promote the rule of law at the national and international levels and ensure equal access to justice for all”. The Foundation was founded in 2010 with the aim of improving the lives of the most vulnerable through law.

We contribute to the SDG16 in various ways, including the pro bono projects we carry out through the Fernando Pombo Foundation. We focus on identifying and eliminating barriers and legal loopholes that affect access to and enjoyment of the fundamental rights of the following population groups in situations of special vulnerability with which the Firm and the Foundation consider it a priority to work:

– Victims of gender-based violence
– Victims of human trafficking
– Children with health problems and in social exclusion
– Homeless people
– Forced migrants

With this illustrative infographic we show our involvement and commitment to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), insofar as we care and take action by respecting the planet, promoting initiatives that contribute to supporting the community, caring for our main asset, people, and seeking responsible business formulas.
