ESG, Sustainability & Impact
“Nature can get along without us. We cannot get along without nature.”
– Ernst F. Schumacher
ESG is nowadays a key priority for international organisations and institutions
Sustainability is no longer a standalone initiative, it is a strategic and operational imperative. Organisations across every sector face increasing expectations from regulators, investors, customers and society to demonstrate credible ESG performance and deliver measurable impact.
At Qienda, we support organisations in embedding sustainability into strategy, governance and execution. From ESG roadmaps and reporting to climate resilience and impact measurement, we help clients navigate complexity and create long-term value through responsible growth.

Public Sector & Urban Sustainability
Sustainability transformation is especially critical for public-sector organisations and urban ecosystems. We support governments, municipalities and infrastructure stakeholders in delivering sustainable development initiatives.
Our expertise includes:

Cities generate over 70% of global CO₂ emissions, making urban sustainability one of the most important levers for climate action.
Build trust through clear, credible ESG communication
Sustainability performance is increasingly judged not only by what organisations do, but by how transparently and consistently they communicate it.
Investors, regulators, customers, employees and communities expect credible ESG narratives backed by evidence, clarity and accountability. Poor communication can create reputational risk, while strong stakeholder engagement builds trust and long-term licence to operate.
At Qienda, we help organisations develop sustainability communication strategies that are authentic, compliant and aligned with business priorities.

- Global ESG narrative development
- Sustainability communications planning across audiences

ESG-related crises can emerge rapidly — from supply chain labour issues and environmental incidents to allegations of greenwashing or governance failures.
In today’s environment of heightened transparency, digital media and regulatory enforcement, organisations must be prepared to respond quickly and credibly when ESG controversies arise.
