STM has released the first part of a new SDG Roadmap to guide publishers large and small in implementing the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and supporting sustainability more broadly. This dedicated toolkit of resources for scholarly publishers takes the potentially overwhelming framework of the SDGs and breaks it down into concrete steps.

The roadmap offers practical suggestions, starting with small steps like signing the SDG Publishers’ Compact and sending a questionnaire to gather your colleagues’ views about SDGs. Later, it guides you through selecting the SDGs that are most relevant to your organisation, nominating individual(s) to coordinate SDG efforts and more.

Our goal is to have at least 50% of STM members sign up. Will you join us in supporting sustainability and social responsibility?
