9:00

THE EVOLVING WORLD OF GHG DISCLOSURE FRAMEWORKS RELATED WITH ESG
REPORTING

  • Topic: Introduction to GRI, SASB, TCFD, ISSB
  • Content: Deep dive into the purpose, structure, and key differences of each framework. Focus on TCFD’s four pillars and

    different stakeholder groups (investors, consumers, regulators)?”
10.45

NAVIGATING THE REGULATORY MAZE

  • Topic: Introduction to National Sustainability Reporting Framework (NSRF) and its
    interplay with global standards.

    Disclosure) align or differ from global benchmarks. The role of the NSRF as a
    local implementation tool.
  • Activity: Case study analysis of a company reporting under both a global framework and a specific national regulation.
1:00 Lunch
