Sustainable Development Goals

Today, the earth is on the verge of environmental crisis such as extreme climate changes,
a plastic island 15 times bigger than Korea and concerns over the 6th mass extinction.
Even in midst of such crisis and even when 60% of 7.7 billion global population is suffering from extreme poverty and diseases,
we cannot stop the economic development. Therefore, in order to enable the form of development
where current generations can work on different types of development while protecting possibilities of our future generations to grow,
the international community is committed to 17 goals for sustainable development including eradicating poverty
and famine, reducing inequality, responding to climate change, reducing land and marine pollutions, and developing innovative technologies and economic growth.

DN AUTOMOTIVE supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the UN as a member of the international community,
and will be fully responsible for participating in resolving universal issues facing humankind,
environmental issues and economic and social problems by connecting our business activities with SDGs.
