What is the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and what does it mean for business disclosure and reporting? The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is a voluntary global framework for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting. GRI enables companies to demonstrate transparency about their impacts—both positive and negative—while serving as a benchmark for the organisation’s sustainable development. By providing a global standard, it fosters informed dialogue and decision-making, including on biodiversity.

As development proliferates, there is a clear need for timely and coordinated spatial planning that balances climate goals with the need to minimise impacts on people and biodiversity.
