The non-financial performance of organizations is increasingly important, particularly in the environmental, social and governance dimensions (Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)<\/strong>). The preparation of sustainability reports helps organizations identify and manage risks and opportunities, respond to the expectations of stakeholders, and comply with increasingly relevant regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n

Um 2022<\/strong>, a European Commission<\/strong> published the Directive 2022\/2464<\/strong>, concerning the communication of information on the sustainability of companies, known as Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)<\/strong>, CSRD<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The sustainability report of the organizations covered by the CSRD<\/strong> It must be carried out in accordance with the standards developed by European Financial Reporting Advisory<\/strong> Group (EFRAG<\/a><\/strong>): as European Sustainability Reporting Standards<\/strong> (ESRS<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

It results from the survey, listening, and cross-checking of external facts and perceptions, collected through direct and indirect sources, regarding social, environmental, and economic topics.<\/p>\n
