Strategy Overview
Our sustainability strategy is grounded in the conviction that Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) topics are at the heart of the value we strive to deliver to our stakeholders.
Our Initiatives
Supporting our healthcare partners is at the core of what we do and essential to our mutual success. Efficient operations and intentional development contribute to healthy spaces that support the medical community and patient outcomes. Through our trusted and collaborative partnerships, we aspire to lead in tenant engagement and create environments that assist our healthcare partners in fostering quality services.
Our success is rooted in our people. Together, we will build for our current and prospective employees, expanding our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts and ensuring we are an organization that sees, hears, and welcomes all team members. We aspire to create a workforce that fully reflects the communities across the globe in which we operate in terms of both gender and racial diversity.
In recognizing that our impact goes beyond our walls and today’s generation, we continue to deepen our commitment to a healthy world. As part of this charge, we recognize the growing need to do more for our planet and are committed to achieving Net-Zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Northwest invests in strong communities by sharing our time, research, and resources and amplifying the healthcare mission of our partners. Community giving is embedded in who we are, and we align our community investment efforts to those of our tenants.
