This initiative, which builds upon the well-established Corporate Reporting Awards introduced in 1998, serves as PwC's new flagship programme to promote sustainability practices within organisations. By highlighting and rewarding outstanding sustainability efforts, these awards aim to:
Sustainability is a critical issue that demands our full attention, as it has the potential to significantly impact the future of our nation and its people.
We're proud to present the 2024 trophy, crafted entirely from recyclable materials. This eco-friendly design not only symbolises our commitment to sustainability but also serves as a reminder of the importance of reducing waste and supporting a circular economy.
The coveted trophies of the PwC Sustainability Awards were created by Jonathan Burtenshaw.
Entries will be evaluated by an independent panel of judges, applying criteria derived from internationally recognised sustainability frameworks. These include, but not limited to, Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) and International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).
The assessment will evaluate submissions using both quantitative and qualitative KPIs, focusing on four key sustainability criteria. This comprehensive approach ensures a well-rounded evaluation of their sustainability efforts.
The quality of the company's Sustainability report is a critical criterion. Judges will assess the clarity and completeness of the report, the level of disclosures and the accuracy of the data provided.
