About GRI

GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) is an independent, international organization that helps organizations be transparent and take responsibility for their impacts so that together we can create a sustainable future.

We do this by creating a global common language for organizations to report their sustainability impacts. This enables informed dialogue and decision-making around those impacts.

GRI is the global standard setter for impact reporting, which through an independent, multi-stakeholder process, maintains the world's most comprehensive set of sustainability reporting standards.

Available as a free public good in 12 languages, the GRI Standards are, globally, the most widely used for sustainability reporting.

GRI uniquely contributes to the global drive to create a sustainable future for all. Sustainability reporting enables transparency and helps markets function more efficiently, supporting better decisions that create sustainable benefits for everyone.

GRI works with businesses, investors, policymakers, civil society, labour organizations, and other experts to develop the GRI Standards and promote their use by organizations worldwide.

The resulting standards help governments hold organizations accountable for their impacts and initiate dialogue to drive corporate contribution to national and international sustainable development efforts.

More than 10,000 organizations, including 78% of the largest 250 companies in the world, disclose sustainability information through the GRI Standards - something unimaginable only 25 years ago.

In addition, our standards are referenced explicitly in 238 policies of governments, regulators, and stock exchanges in 85 countries.
