Are the charities equipped to implement ESG in their charitable works?
ESG matters to all organisations, sectors and industries that are interlinked with each other. Over the recent years, ESG has gained greater importance among investors, policymakers, and other key stakeholders because it is seen to safeguard organisations from future risks.
The Charity Council assessed it is timely to introduce the concept of ESG to charities to familiarise them with it. The Charity Council will be collaborating with various partners to develop relevant ESG guide/template and conduct trainings for charities to raise their understanding of ESG and guide them on steps to incorporate ESG factors in their programmes.
