AccountAbility Recognized as a Leading ESG Framework Developer by the World Economic Forum

WEF ESG Ecosystem Map Acknowledges the AA1000 Series of Standards as Having "Significant Influence" in Advancing the ESG Agenda.

‍

The World Economic Forum (WEF) recognized AccountAbility and our AA1000 Series of Standards - alongside the UN Global Compact, Science-Based Targets, the Task Force for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and other key players in the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) space - as a critical Framework Developer in its ESG Ecosystem Map.

This acknowledgement solidifies the role of the AA1000 Series of Standards in impacting large-scale, integrated, and focused ESG change.

The WEF developed the ESG Ecosystem Map to help organizations navigate the complex sustainability landscape and empower investors to act with confidence when making ESG-informed investment decisions.

The WEF's inclusion of AccountAbility as a Framework Developer in its ecosystem acknowledges our “significant influence" in helping organizations:

• Understand the importance of ESG alongside traditional annual reporting practices
• Identify the best manner of developing and presenting their ESG disclosures
• Consider reporting practices through the lens of long-term value creation
