YCP in Numbers
Key Challenges We Address
Turning fragmented SDG data into decision-ready reporting
- Across the EU, the ESRS framework includes more than 1,100 potential disclosure datapoints, forcing firms to align fragmented operational, financial and value-chain data.
- YCP translates material SDG priorities into practical metrics, governance and data flows, helping disclosures inform credible decisions rather than become a compliance exercise.
Converting climate targets into investable transition plans
- EU greenhouse-gas emissions were about 37% below 1990 levels in 2023, yet the 2030 target requires a 55% net reduction, increasing pressure on corporate plans.
- Against this gap, YCP links decarbonisation targets to operational roadmaps, capital allocation and measurable milestones that support implementation and investor confidence.
Building SDG-resilient supply chains amid resource pressure
- EU residents generated 511 kg of municipal waste per person in 2023, while volatile input costs and disrupted supply chains complicate progress on responsible production.
- YCP identifies value-chain hotspots and circularity opportunities, enabling companies to prioritise supplier action, resource efficiency and SDG-aligned sourcing strategies.
Embedding social outcomes alongside environmental performance
- In 2023, 21.4% of people in the EU—94.6 million individuals—were at risk of poverty or social exclusion, intensifying scrutiny of decent work and inclusive value chains.
- In response, YCP helps organisations connect stakeholder needs with social targets, workforce initiatives and impact measurement that strengthen long-term business resilience.
With over half of businesses in Europe actively integrating SDGs into operations,
54%*
aligning with local expertise is essential for long-term sustainable growth.
