The Warsaw School of Economics (SGH) and the Foundation Institute for Eastern Studies (FISW), organiser of the Karpacz Economic Forum, have decided to establish the ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) Initiative, reports Gazeta SGH. The documents to this effect were signed by SGH Rector Dr Piotr Wachowiak and FISW President Jerzy Bochyński.

The ESG initiative will act as a council bringing together companies, institutions and academia for which ESG values are at the heart of their activities. The aim is to create a platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience in conducting ESG-compliant business. 

The activities of the ESG Initiative will be systematic and its working dimension will be related to the continuous production of educational materials, scientific studies and speaking in the public debate on the directions of change in the ESG area and reporting. The ESG Initiative’s partners will be those with a key role in the formation of standards and the creation of ESG best practices.
