IMG Focal Points
Moving the UN system towards greater sustainability requires collective action. It is a prime opportunity for the UN system to act as one. Shared ideas, tools and experiences will cut investment costs and payback times, and make emissions reduction easier for each participating organization.
Each UN organization has a nominated Focal Point to sit on the Environment Management Group (EMG) Issue Management Group (IMG) on Environmental Sustainability Management (ESM). Focal Points have been appointed to coordinate the sustainability management process throughout their respective organizations and to keep methodologies and measures up-to-date and harmonized with the other UN organizations.
