BSD is first GRI Certified Training Partner in Hispanic America
The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) has pioneered the development of the world’s most widely used sustainability reporting framework and is committed to its continuous improvement and application worldwide. In order to advance this strategy, the GRI certifies organisations as official training partners.
BSD is the first organisation to become GRI Certified Training Partner in Hispanic America. The first course led by BSD Colombia Director Felipe Arango took place on 23-24 March in Costa Rica. Subsequent opportunities to participate in the GRI Certified Training Courses will be published and continuously updated on the dedicated section of the BSD website (in Spanish).
BSD is inviting everyone interested in sustainability reporting to participate in these courses and thus advance and improve their organisation's reporting practices.
BSD participated in 4 of the 10 Best Practice examples of Brazilian Sustainability Reports.
