Sustainability reporting has emerged as a critical tool in the business world to address environmental, social, and governance (ESG) concerns, and foster responsible corporate practices. As organizations increasingly recognize their impact on the planet and society, there is a growing demand for transparency and accountability.
Sustainability reporting thus serves as a means to communicate a company's efforts, progress, and commitments towards sustainable development and responsible business practices.
The aim of this on-demand course is to equip organisations with context and background on sustainability reporting, highlighting the significance of sustainability reporting, the key principles, reporting practices, and empower these organisations to introduce and integrate sustainability reporting into their organisations and increase understanding in the changing regulatory environment. Navigating through the array of diverse standards however, understanding their nuances, and identifying the most relevant ones for your organization, can prove challenging.
In Module 1, we emphasize the vital role sustainability reporting plays in measuring, understanding, and effectively communicating economic, environmental, social, and governance performance, empowering organizations to set ambitious goals and navigate change more effectively.
In Module 2 we provide an overview of the key sustainability reporting standards. This module will delve into the criteria set forth by well-known entities such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), ISSB (International Sustainability Standards Board), SASB, and more. By gaining comprehensive insights into these standards, participants will be better equipped to align their reporting processes with industry best practice, enhance stakeholder engagement, and make informed strategic decisions for a sustainable future.
