Global Compact Network Switzerland & Liechtenstein is organizing a webinar series on the state of CSR regulation in the EU.
The Global Compact Network Switzerland & Liechtenstein has formed a collaboration with ECOFACT AG to support its members in responding to regulatory change related to sustainability and corporate responsibility.
The regulatory frameworks governing corporate actions in the context of sustainability and corporate responsibility issues are rapidly evolving. After a long period mainly shaped by industry self-regulation, companies now face comprehensive expectations, detailed both in soft law standards and – increasingly – hard law. Examples include the ongoing revision of the EU’s Non-financial Reporting Directive, the upcoming EU Directive on Corporate Due Diligence and Corporate Accountability, and the new Task Force for Nature-related Financial Disclosures.
Join us for the fourth quarterly briefing call in which we will update you on what to expect from the European Union and from international standard setters.
This event is free of charge for United Nations Global Compact Signatories and Participants.
This webinar is held on 2 November 2021 at 3–4 pm Finnish time.
Discussions on the future of the SDGs beyond 2030 will begin in September 2027. While the format and process of the expected negotiations remains to be decided upon, and the main focus of UN Member States, international organisations as well as other actors and stakeholders is on implementing the SDGs, particularly the science community and civil society have started mapping possible scenarios and narratives around the post-2030 agenda process.
Join the CoP team for a live Q&A office hours session, where they will walk through key requirements and share important updates for the 2026 Communication on Progress (CoP) reporting cycle.
In this seminar, we will explore sustainable business and green investments from multiple perspectives: where the greatest opportunities lie, what risks need to be managed, how regulation and financing instruments can be turned into strategic advantages, and how timing influences competitiveness.
