No Poverty
Supporting inclusive economic opportunities and stronger communities.
United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
WAICA Re is committed to strategies, activities and operations that support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We use the SDGs as an important reference point for connecting our sustainability priorities with positive outcomes for people, communities, the economy and the environment.
Our approach considers the relevance of the SDGs to the insurance and reinsurance sector, our material sustainability topics and the areas where our business can create meaningful impact. This helps us translate our sustainability commitments into practical actions and measurable outcomes.
