WORKSHOP

Sustainability reporting for beginners

 

Sustainable reporting: ESG for beginners

 

In this workshop, we make the participants ESG-fit. We develop the basics of environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria specifically for SMEs that want to get into the subject. We shed light on how the EU directives influence reporting and what specific requirements can be placed on SMEs.

Participants will gain insights into effective data collection and impact measurement methods and learn how to use this information to create meaningful and regulatory compliant ESG reports. The workshop offers practical exercises to make what has been learned directly applicable and creates a platform for exchange with other professionals to discuss best practices and challenges.

The aim is not only to provide participants with the necessary knowledge, but also to equip them with the tools they need to start their ESG reporting and make their organizations more transparent and sustainable.
