Communicate your Performance and progress Externally

Reporting sustainability performance is a valuable management tool for communicating your social and environmental performance to customers, suppliers, employees and investors. The reporting process also helps you to assess your impacts, manage risk, leverage opportunities, increase transparency by better engaging your stakeholders and improve your brand image. We will guide you through the entire reporting process and specialize in a variety of reporting frameworks and mechanisms, including:

• Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)
• CDP (climate, water, supply-chain)

• Sustainability Accounting Standard Board

> Global Reporting Initiative

The GRI Standards are the first global standards for sustainability reporting. They feature a modular, interrelated structure, and represent the global best practice for reporting on a range of economic, environmental and social impacts. We work with our clients to develop sustainability reports in line with the globally accepted framework, GRI Standards, that authentically tell their stories. From content development and design consultation to data collection to interviews and storytelling, we provide the level of support that works for you, whether we provide support or help you put your whole report together.

Sustainability Assurance

When it comes to sustainability reporting, the terms ‘verification’ and ‘assurance’ essentially mean the same thing: an external audit, during which we evaluate the credibility, accuracy and relevance of your report. The purpose of such an audit is to convincingly demonstrate the reliability of your publication. The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the driving force behind the GRI Standards for sustainability reporting, strongly recommends third party verification as part of the reporting process. According to GRI data, external assurance is increasingly common: about 50 % of all published reports are subjected to verification, with this figure set to increase in the future.

Verification by an independent third party such as CENGSSUD proves that your report provides an accurate depiction of the main sustainability aspects of your organization and assures your stakeholders of the trustworthiness of the disclosures made. As a licensed Assurance Provider according to the AA1000 standard, the Centre for Global Solutions and Sustainable Development is the globally recognized and qualified assurance partner you have been looking for. Regardless of whether your sustainability report follows the GRI principles or a custom approach, we will be happy to guide you through the process.
