Whether we are delivering high-speed rail systems, designing urban infrastructure or supporting adaptation to climate change risks, we are committed to finding sustainable solutions to the challenges the future will bring.
WSP aims to be at the forefront of the transition to a more equitable, inclusive and low-carbon world. Our Global Strategic Action Plan is underpinned by a firm commitment to sustainability and ESG matters, both in our own activities and in the work we undertake for our clients.
As we strive to ensure our clients achieve their business goals, we also contribute to advancing the green transition. Our Global Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) Statement defines our objectives and approach to embedding sustainability in our services and advice to clients, in our operations, and in the communities in which we work.
"As one of the world’s largest environmental consulting firms, we will continue to play a pivotal role in achieving a sustainable, equitable and prosperous future for our employees, clients and communities, to keep improving our organization, as well as the world we live in."
André-Martin Bouchard Global Executive Director, ESG
WSP’s greatest impact on sustainability is through our services and advice to clients. Now more than ever, governments, cities, and businesses face growing challenges and need to integrate ESG principles into risk management, business strategy and decision-making.
Across the world, WSP combines our advisory expertise with our technical and engineering experience to assist public and private sector organisations in transforming their sustainability and ESG strategies into action.
Our multidisciplinary teams help clients navigate a complex landscape and unlock opportunities to reduce cost, create value and mitigate risk across the value chain, ultimately building more resilient organisations that can thrive in a changing global market.
Future Ready is our global innovation programme, challenging and inspiring all our people to advise and design programmes ready for the future as well as today.
It’s important as many of the schemes we work on have design lives of decades. Decades, when society will have different needs and technologies, will change. Decades when climate change will bring more extreme weather and also a phase-down of fossil fuels.
WSP’s Future Ready® mindset uniquely positions us to be the advisor of choice for our clients as they navigate transformational market trends related to climate change, society, technology and resources. We challenge our experts to see the future more clearly and to purposefully advise or design for the future as well as for today.
