G4 “Guidelines Workshop”

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Deloitte US are organizing this workshop to collect feedback on the Exposure Draft of G4.

The Exposure Draft has been created by expert Working Groups from around the world, based on the input GRI received in the first G4 Public Comment Period (PCP) in late 2011.

In this interactive workshop, you will have the chance to discuss important questions about the Exposure Draft, posed by GRI’s Technical Advisory Committee, with GRI experts. The workshop, which is being held as part of the second Public Comment Period (PCP) for G4, provides an opportunity for GRI stakeholders to discuss the proposed changes in G4, to generate input for the PCP, and to create awareness of G4.

Please note that there is a limited number of seats and therefore attendance is restricted to 1 representative per organization.
