We have identified three major challenges impacting our business:
The Climate Crisis: No longer a distant threat, but a visible reality, we believe that the climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity.
Unsustainable consumption: In a world that already uses resources requiring more than one planet, billions of people put an even greater pressure on the planet. .
Inequality: Every year, people move out of poverty, while others tragically fall back into it. There is also an ver-increasing level of inequality in the world with a widening gap between the wealthiest in society and the rest. Gender equality is far from a reality, and many people are still denied basic rights and equal opportunities.
As a response to these three challenges, we’ve identified three corresponding focus areas to help us fulfil the IKEA vision and become more sustainable:
- Healthy & Sustainable Living
- Climate, Circular & Nature
- Fair & Equal
