The 2017 UN Forum on Business and Human Rights starts today in Geneva, Switzerland, bringing together over 2,000 participants from government, business, and non-governmental organizations to discuss business-related human rights topics and share ideas and good practice. The forum aims to progress the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). This year the theme is Realizing Access to Effective Remedy and draws on the third pillar of the UNGPs:
The fifth edition of the Ipieca-API-IOGP Sustainability reporting guidance: new just transition indicators and updates to the social indicators through a just transition lens.
Ipieca’s strategy will lead the integration of climate, nature and people actions across the oil, gas and alternative energy industry value chain, driving the delivery of diverse pathways to net-zero, supporting the resilience and rehabilitation of local communities and ecosystems, and enabling the industry to adapt to the changing reporting landscape.
Aligned with the Ipieca Principles on nature to support the aims of the UN CBD and responsibly manage operational impacts on the natural environment and ecosystem services, Ipieca is raising awareness of the International Day for Biological Diversity and resources aligned with the day’s aims.
Responding to the continuous advancement of technology, this update expands the number of technologies included in the joint Ipieca-IOGP-OGCI- Energy Institute guidance and online technology filtering tool.
We are pleased to introduce Ipieca’s new interactive dashboard, built on insights from our annual sustainability reporting survey. This tool highlights key findings from surveys conducted since 2012, enabling year-on-year comparisons of reporting practices and changing priorities across the industry.
