Although there have been discussions, seminars and numerous publications advocating the incorporation of SDGs into business practices, models and operations, the real challenge is finding a way to meaningfully implement, measure and report the SDGs in both financial and non-financial terms, focusing on social, environmental and financial value-creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the difficulty is that accountants are not usually involved in SDG-related planning despite the fact that information analysis and risk assessment is a key area of their expertise. Accountants can in fact, play an instrumental role in (1) identifying potential risk and developing mitigation strategies, including instruments to measure, quantify and monetise social and environmental performance; and (2) monitoring and reporting progress towards SDG achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This masterclass will help in developing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Business is a specialised and interactive 1.5 day program, providing not only a comprehensive exposure to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations but importantly, how to practically and sustainably incorporate the SDGs to the goals of your businesses, integrating these into the business strategy and your day-to-day operations and reporting against them to a broad group of stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Upon completing this program, you will:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>gain a thorough understanding of and acquire skills in selecting the most appropriate and relevant SDGs and associated targets for your operations;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>strengthen skills in identifying potential risks and develop mitigation strategies related to SDGs;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>aligning the selected SDGs to corporate priorities and integrating these into organizational strategy; learning how to measure, quantify and monetise the relevant SDGs over time;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>gain skills in analysing the costs versus benefits of incorporating SDGs into business operations; and gain practical skills in terms of reporting, monitoring and communicating progress in SDG implementation to relevant stakeholders, both internal and external.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>All participants will benefit from a hands-on approach aimed at the actual implementation of SDGs across most aspects of business operations.<\/p>\n\n\n<mimas-block \n        block-name=\"accordion\"\n        role=\"complementary\"\n        aria-label=\"Accordion content\"\n
