AFD calculates results indicators to measure and provide a summarised report on the impact of its activity on the ground, in order to serve the development of its areas of operation and the populations benefiting from the projects funded, and, more generally, the impact of its work on the SDGs.

It lies at the core of the Group’s corporate responsibility. Adopted in 2018, AFD Group’s strategic orientation plan places its action within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the Paris Agreement in order to help build “a world in common”. Accordingly, AFD Group is responsible for helping to achieve the 17 goals of the 2030 Agenda through 6 transitions: demographic and social, energy, territorial and ecological, digital and technological, and political and public. TheGroup checks the validity of its operations in the geographical and sectorial environments in which it operates, and conducts regular impact analyses.
