Webinar: The Value of the AA1000 Series of Standards
On November 18, 2020, AccountAbility Licensed Assurance Providers, Point Advisory and Think Sustainability - represented by speakers Alan Dayeh, Alicia Maynard, Glenn Frommer, and Paul Davies - hosted this webinar event to discuss the value of the AA1000 Series of Standards, and how they continue to evolve to help companies implement and embed effective sustainability management systems.
Chief Sustainability Officers and their teams are increasingly being relied upon by their organizations to strategically respond to investors, customers, and other stakeholders in relation to material sustainability topics. The demand for public disclosures on a range of sustainability topics, from climate change to human rights, continues to rise and evolve in different ways around the world – and from various drivers/sources, including legislative requirements, investor and trading exchanges requests, and sustainability reporting frameworks and tools (including GRI, IR, and SASB).
Responding to these dynamics and ever-evolving changes requires disciplined and robust approaches to sustainability management. For over two decades, AccountAbility’s AA1000 Series of Standards has provided practitioners in all types of organizations a framework to support robust and accountable sustainability management practice.
AccountAbility Licensed Assurance Providers, Point Advisory and Think Sustainability, recently hosted a webinar to explore and discuss the importance and value of the AA1000 Series of Standards, and how they continue to evolve to help companies implement and embed effective sustainability management systems.
