Understand the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), sustainability reporting and integrating the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with this SGS Academy course.
The surge in organizations reporting on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) has increased pressure for independent verification of these reports against recognized standards, such as the GRI.
For over 25 years, the GRI has developed and delivered the global best practice for how organizations communicate and demonstrate accountability for their impacts on the environment, economy and people.
The GRI provides the most widely used sustainability reporting standards, which cover many topics, from biodiversity, tax and waste to emissions, diversity, and health and safety. GRI reporting enables transparency and dialogue between companies and their stakeholders.
