Event Resources

Event resources are for BSR members only. Members, please log in to access the resources.

With the new wave of disclosure rules in Europe, the US and around the globe expecting to mandate reporting on material sustainability topics, Chief Sustainability Officers and their teams have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to harness reporting as a positive, energizing, and meaningful vehicle for change. Hear from BSR experts as they set out the latest developments in reporting, describe what this means for business, and discuss what might be next around the corner. The webinar will emphasize the role that many different functions inside companies—beyond the sustainability team—will need to play in this new era, how sustainability leads can collaborate with those functions, and underscore the importance of reporting as a necessary feature across the whole agenda of just and sustainable business.
