CitiusTech Joins UN Global Compact to Advance Sustainable Healthcare Innovation

These include mobile health units in underserved regions, STEM education for marginalized youth, among others.

CitiusTech, a provider of healthcare technology, services, and solutions, has announced its participation in the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative.

The voluntary platform is designed to encourage companies worldwide to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies.

The 2025 SDG progress assessment highlights that the world is falling short of meeting the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Of the 169 SDG targets, 139 could be evaluated against global trend data, with only 35% showing adequate progress.

Nearly half reflect insufficient progress, while 18% have regressed below 2015 baseline levels. Against this backdrop, corporate participation in initiatives like the UNGC is seen as critical to accelerating progress and closing the sustainability gap.

By integrating the 10 UNGC principles into its strategy, culture, and operations, CitiusTech is driving measurable impact through its CSR and employee well-being programs.

These include mobile health units in underserved regions, STEM education for marginalized youth, afforestation drives, clean energy adoption, and inclusive hiring practices.

“At CitiusTech, we believe technology is a powerful force for equity, health, and sustainability. By aligning with global standards while remaining rooted in local needs, we can scale our impact meaningfully,” said Punam Shejale, CISO and Head of CSR & Sustainability, CitiusTech.

“Joining the UN Global Compact initiative is a natural step for us. As a healthcare technology leader, our mission to catalyze healthier lives aligns closely with the UNSDGs, particularly those focused on health, innovation, equality, and climate action.”

CitiusTech has made sustainability a strategic pillar, embedding ESG across stakeholder engagement, client mandates, and regulatory preparedness.

Its participation in the UNGC strengthens its position as a responsible partner for healthcare and life sciences organizations and supports evolving disclosure requirements and ESG-focused collaborations.

The company’s CSR programs support UNSDGs 3, 4, 7, 13, and 17 through initiatives in healthcare access, STEM education, clean energy, climate action, and multi-stakeholder partnerships.

Its employee care programs align with UNSDGs 3, 5, 8, and 10, focusing on mental health, diversity and inclusion, equitable opportunities, and professional growth.
