By joining the SDG Publishers Compact, the IET joins publishing organisations from around the world in a commitment to act as champions of the SDG and publish content that will help inform, develop, and inspire action in that direction.
Vincent Cassidy, Head of Academic Markets at the IET, commented: “The IET’s publishing strategy aligns with our overarching mission to share knowledge that helps make better sense of the world in order to solve the challenges that matter. Signing the SDG Publishers Compact is a meaningful way that we can reinforce our commitment to these goals and join other publishers in advancing their progress.”
As a specialist publisher for the global engineering and technology community, the IET actively publishes a wide range of books and journals in subject areas that support the SDG – providing researchers and practitioners around the world with information they need to tackle the biggest societal and sustainability challenges.
Joining this compact is an important action that supports the IET’s own 2030 strategy, which was inspired in-part by the SDG, says the organisation. As a diverse home across engineering and technology, the IET says it is committed to supporting the vast opportunities that these fields have to uncover engineering feats and technological advances that will aid in solving societal problems in the future.
