ABOUT IFC’S SUSTAINABLE INFRASTRUCTURE ADVISORY
The Sustainable Infrastructure Advisory (SIA) provides IFC clients and partners with expert sustainability advice that enables infrastructure investments with strong development impact. We work with investors, companies, and subnational governments in emerging markets, helping to design and implement sustainability solutions that create jobs, support access to clean energy, catalyze economic growth, strengthen asset and community resilience, support a healthier planet, and foster a more equitable society.

- Social Inclusion: Strengthen companies’ capacity to develop and adopt diverse, equitable and inclusive products and solutions in their workforce, supply chain, communities, and customer base.
- Digital Data Governance & Accountability: Support companies and cities with strategies and implementation of sustainability initiatives that leverage digital data and technologies, such as AI.
