Diageo supports launch of 'World's To-Do List' campaign in support of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals

We're proud to be joining a group of the world's biggest companies and brands to launch a major awareness campaign, 'The World's To-Do List'. The campaign is designed to urge people to show their support for, and action towards, achieving the 17 Global Goals for Sustainable Development (SDG), a plan adopted by all UN member states in 2015 to end poverty, conquer inequality and tackle the climate crisis by 2030.

We are the business champion of Sustainable Development Goal 6: 'Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all'. By 2030 we have committed to replenishing all direct consumptive water used in water stressed areas, a 30% improvement in water use efficiency globally and 40% in water stressed areas and to complete 150 community water projects, including providing access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene.
