Developing Credible Position Statements | Embedding Project & WBCSD Webinar
Channel: Embedding Project
Date: 2020-10-02

Embedding Project and WBCSD co-host a webinar where we help you consider whether your position statements are fit for purpose. This was recorded on 29 September, 2020.

Has your company articulated a credible position on key social and environmental issues?

In light of growing expectations for companies to play an active part in addressing sustainability, it is increasingly important to articulate credible public positions on key issues. WBCSD has collaborated with the Embedding Project to help companies to develop credible position statements and benchmark them against other leading companies.

The Position Database was created following a review of thousands of corporate positions articulated by companies globally, on issues as diverse as community rights and freedoms, materials and waste, ecosystems, and climate. Each of the leading statements included in the database has been assessed using publicly available data, according to the framework outlined in the Embedding Project’s Governance Guide.
