Why choose this course?
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices are increasingly becoming central to strategic decision-making, investment frameworks, and regulatory compliance across industries. As Kuwait transitions toward a more sustainable and diversified economy in line with Kuwait Vision 2035, ESG literacy and carbon accountability are not just desirable, they are imperative skills.
This masterclass responds to a growing demand for hands-on, practical understanding of ESG frameworks, ESG reporting align to GRI, and carbon footprint calculations.
Participants will leave with both the knowledge and tools needed to drive ESG performance within their organisations aligned with international frameworks like GRI and the Sustainable Development Goals.
