the UNGC and AGT Bus- & Eventlogistik in association

AGT Coach & Event Logistics clearly believes that the goal of sustainable corporate and social development can only be achieved if a clear and purposeful awareness can be implemented among all its stakeholders. For AGT, this means that the 17 SDGs of the UNGC must not only be taken into account in daily actions within the organization, but rather also in the selection of its service providers along the value chain.

Already since the beginning of 2021, AGT has been implementing numerous measures and projects that will contribute to sustainable development along the value chain, to internal and external interested parties and towards society.

For example, the first implementations relate to SDG 4 – Quality Education. This ensures that all employees are offered an opportunity for qualitative development and self-fulfillment. Thus, equality in terms of educational opportunities is promoted.

The goals set by the UNCG cover a wide range of CSR activities. The officially obtained membership of the UNGC is only the starting signal for a future and continuous sustainable development of the company and society. Therefore, the company management looks forward to a continuous awareness raising and implementation of the 17 SDGs at AGT Coach & Event Logistics.
