The Africa strategy is part of the Deloitte global priority focus which is assembling one of the largest global networks of sustainability experience including an investment of US$1bn client-related services, data-driven research, and assets and capabilities.

In collaboration with leading academic, policy, business, and governmental organisations, the DCSP network will focus on holistic, results-oriented thought leadership, data driven analysis, and accountability reporting to guide organisations through their sustainability journeys.

Deloitte will also build on its efforts of empowering individuals and engaging ecosystems as part of its internal WorldClimate strategy by offering a robust curriculum of sustainability training courses to all 345,000 professionals along with its clients and suppliers.
