Frequently Asked Questions

What is SDG Alignment Mapper?

SDG Alignment Mapper is an intelligent analysis engine that automatically matches your projects, activities, and investments to the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). By scanning your financial, environmental, and social data, it clearly shows which SDGs you contribute to, where gaps exist, and how strongly your organization aligns with global goals.

This module enables organizations to integrate not only ESG requirements, but also global sustainability frameworks into their strategic plans.

How the Process Works?

Data Collection and Scope Definition

Project, activity, investment, and ESG performance data are uploaded into the system. The scope is defined, including which categories (financial, environmental, social) will be covered.

SDG Indicator Matching Engine

Data is automatically matched to global indicators linked to the 17 SDGs. For each data point, the strongest SDG connection is identified.

Contribution Level Analysis

For each project or activity, the system calculates contribution levels:

Direct contribution (Primary Impact)
Indirect contribution (Secondary Impact)
Enabling contribution (Enabler Impact)

Gap Analysis and Recommendation Generation

Missing SDG links, areas that need strengthening, and potential project opportunities are flagged by the system.

SDG Alignment Score Creation

A holistic “Alignment Score” is produced for each SDG. This score is based on three core pillars: financial, environmental, and social.

What Value Does It Deliver?

Financial SDG Matching (Financial Alignment)

Matches revenue, CapEx, and OpEx data to SDG goals, showing how your financial impact links to global targets.

Environmental SDG Matching (Environmental Alignment)

Aligns indicators such as emissions, energy, waste, water, and resource management with UN SDGs, making your environmental performance visible at a global level.

Social SDG Matching (Social Alignment)

Links equality, inclusion, employee wellbeing, and community impact data to SDG targets, making social value measurable.

Reporting Alignment Strength (Reporting Alignment)

Connects your disclosures and policies to SDG goals, aligning your corporate reports, website, and sustainability strategy with global targets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does SDG Alignment Mapper only analyze ESG projects?

No. It provides an integrated SDG alignment by analyzing financial, environmental, and social projects and investments together.

How are SDG scores created?

For each SDG, a numeric “Alignment Score” is calculated by considering the data link, contribution level, impact intensity, and strength of evidence.

Can a project contribute to multiple SDGs?

Yes. The system classifies primary, secondary, and enabling SDG contributions separately.

Can we use these outputs in our reports?

Partially. They are suitable for SDG maps, impact reports, annual reports, and sustainability data shared with banks.

Why is SDG alignment important for investors?

SDG alignment shows how corporate activities fit global sustainability goals. This is a critical indicator for investor confidence, impact funds, and sustainable financing.
