developed and converted into e-learning courses.
• More than 200 professionals trained in supply chain
management and reporting practices.
• Over 100 professionals trained in reporting on
gender equality.

“After the workshop, I can relate more clearly
to ways in which our company can make a planand strategy about their supply chain impacts.
This has to be done from the first phase of
the reporting process, so that the company
can report on the whole of its related materialaspects.”

Looking ahead
Currently, certain critical issues suchas human trafficking have little tono reporting practice or standards.
One of GRI’s future endeavors will
be to develop new guidance on suchdifficult and yet untackled supply
chain-related issues. In addition, GRI
will help increase market transparency
by building reporting capacity among
first and second tier companies, andby engaging with policymakers andregulators to help create a more
conducive reporting environment in
the region.
