GRI Awards!

Have your say on sustainability reporting today in the GRI Readers’ Choice Awards and Survey

The TSF Project invites all readers to support the participants by scoring their sustainability reports, in order to make them eligible for the GRI readers'choice awards! (See below for more backgound information and how-to)

In case you need information or support with this scoring, please contact gj.schuite@triodosfacet.nl and your TSF coach will support you with signing up and perform the actual scoring.

From 1 October the GRI Readers’ Choice Awards and Survey will give all sustainability report users worldwide a voice on the current state of sustainability reporting. Sustainability report readers will have the opportunity to score a minimum of two sustainability reports from 2006 and contribute to deciding which reports should deserve recognition in the GRI Readers’ Choice Awards. In conjunction with the Awards KPMG and SustainAbility, the leading global sustainability reporting trend monitors, will conduct an online survey about sustainability report readers needs and preferences.
These results of the Awards and Survey will give all sustainability report users worldwide the opportunity to shape the future of best practice in sustainability reporting.
Both the Global Readers’ Choice Awards and the Survey results will be presented during ‘The Amsterdam Global Conference on Sustainability and Transparency’, which will be held 7 - 9 May, 2008. All readers who score a minimum of two reports will qualify for the prize draw to win one of six all expenses paid trips to the conference.
