ESG consulting: relevance of the agenda, analytics and prospects
On November 27, 2024 the Research center “Smart technologies for sustainable development of the urban environment in the global change” Agrarian and Technological Institute RUDN University organizes an international scientific seminar “ESG consulting: relevance of the agenda, analytics and prospects”. The event will be held on the Microsoft Teams platform. The working language is Russian.
ESG (E — environment, ecology; S — social, social policy; G — governance, corporate governance) is a set of principles for doing business that correspond to the general philosophy of sustainable development. Speakers will present an overview of the transformation of the sustainable development concept into the concept of ESG and social responsibility, problems and prospects for disclosing non-financial reporting, taking into account changes in international requirements.
In 2018, the president signed a decree “On the national goals and strategic objectives of the development of the Russian Federation for the period until 2024.” In 2021, the government issued a decree “On approval of the goals and main directions of sustainable (including green) development of the Russian Federation” and a decree “On approval of criteria for sustainable (including green) development projects in Russia and requirements for the verification system of financing instruments for sustainable development in the Russian Federation.”" Thus, these three letters E, S and G largely determine the development vector of companies, cities and regions. How exactly this happens in practice will be discussed at the seminar.
