National Business Initiative of South Africa (NBI) and the UNCTAD joined efforts to organise a webinar "Core indicators for implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" for the local private sector community.
The objective of the event is to raise awareness of the UNCTAD approach on Core SDG indicators as a common benchmark for sustainability and SDG reporting by enterprises reporting as well as help to understand whether the South African current reporting practices are aligned with the proposed framework.
In addition, the workshop will elaborate on how standardised data from the private sector can benefit national level reporting of the private sector contribution towards the implementation of the SDGs.
The webinar will also enable to engage private sector to the ongoing Development Account Project 11th Tranche on Enabling policy frameworks for enterprise sustainability and SDG reporting in South Africa.
