With the arrival of the long-awaited European Corporate Sustainability Directive (CSRD), organizations have to be increasingly transparent about their financial and non-financial information. Therefore, it is essential to further embed sustainability into the organization. We offer a masterclass to help you and your organization to take the first steps towards a CSRD-compliant sustainability strategy. In this masterclass, we explore the basics of sustainability reporting according to the CSRD, including double materiality and stakeholder management. Moreover, we will take a deep dive into the ESRS and increase our understanding of these topics through interactive case studies.

Schuttelaar & Partners is an international consultancy with over 27 years of experience in sustainability implementation and reporting. This masterclass is given by our CSRD and reporting expert Eleonora Roding and our communication expert Pep Bantula Panella. This Brussels-based event is the second edition of our CSRD masterclass series.

Working with her, you will find that complex sustainability standards, frameworks and regulations, such as the TCFD, CSRD, SFDR and the EU taxonomy, can be leveraged not only to initiate green business initiatives but also to embed sustainability the organisation.
