Corporate social responsibility (CSR) contribution to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGS) in southeast Sulawesi

Abstract

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been agreed upon by all countries in the UN membership. However, in some cases, efforts to achieve SDGs by a government face the main obstacle to funding issues. At the global level, the SDGs' achievement in a participatory manner is also called for all parties involved. An alternative scheme is needed to overcome this problem, one of which is through the involvement of the business sector through the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program. The business sector can contribute to overcoming the problem of social and environmental inequality while maintaining the company's profitability. This article analyses whether CSR can achieve the targets to attain the SDGs by taking the PT Antam Tbk CSR program in Southeast Sulawesi. The analysis is carried out through the website and sustainability reports of PT Antam Tbk. The findings in this article that CSR programs can be aligned with the goals in achieving the SDGs can help the Government accelerate the achievement of the SDGs.
