Table of Contents
The global investment and corporate sectors have recognised that companies that benefit society also excel in business. Contributing to society and the environment is no longer an option but a requirement from the investor, consumer and employee for good ESG impacts. ESG frameworks can improve transparency, objectivity and accountability – however, varied frameworks, various reporting standards, and the growing ESG landscape have caused complexity and uncertainty.
This workshop examines the fundamentals of ESG and sustainability, reporting, stakeholder engagement, and rising global trends like the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). Whether you are an experienced sustainability practitioner or new to the area, this workshop will help you understand ESG, navigate the confusing language of the ESG world, and lead your business in constructing a high-impact ESG programme.
