CDSB invites comments from multi-stakeholders on the CDSB Framework application guidance for water-related disclosures and how it can support the integration of material water-related information in corporate mainstream reports.
About the guidance
The CDSB Framework application guidance for water-related disclosure (Water Guidance) has been produced by the Climate Disclosure Standards Board (CDSB) to assist companies in the disclosure of material water-related information in the mainstream report. It is designed to complement the CDSB Framework for reporting environmental and climate change information (CDSB Framework) and other frameworks, codes and recommendations that are aligned with some or all of the requirements of the CDSB Framework. The Water Guidance offers companies a means of developing their reporting practices and ensuring that investors are receiving the material water-related information needed for effective capital allocation to drive the transition to a sustainable, resilient, and water secure economy.
