Corporate Water Disclosure Guidelines - Public Exposure Draft Consultation 2013 |
1. Introduction
| 8% |
In August 2012, the CEO Water Mandate released the Public Exposure Draft of its Corporate Water Disclosure Guidelines. This project seeks to advance a common approach to corporate water disclosure that addresses the complexity and local nature of water resources.
The Public Exposure Draft allows companies to utilize and test this guidance before it is revised and finalized. The Mandate Secretariat now hopes to consult with Mandate endorsers, other companies, and key stakeholders in order to garner feedback on this draft. Specifically, it aims to explore whether the Guidelines represent an appropriate overall framework for water-related information, offer effective guidance on how companies can disclose this information, and are easy and intuitive to use. This feedback will directly inform Phase 2 of this project during which the project team will revise the Guidelines before they are published in Q1 2014.
This online survey is the primary mechanism through which the project team will garner this important feedback from companies and external audiences.
