CDP is critical in supporting organizations to navigate a rapidly evolving sustainability landscape. By aligning our corporate questionnaire with the world’s most relevant frameworks and standards, CDP makes them truly interoperable by bringing them together in one place.
This alignment ensures that CDP disclosure serves as a one-stop shop for understanding and disclosing against the relevant market and regulatory demands, supporting organizations on their path to compliance. Disclose once through CDP to have your data read and used by many stakeholders.
For more than 20 years, CDP has been driving harmonization globally by aligning with best practice standards such as the GHG Protocol, the CEO Water Mandate, and the Accountability Framework initiative (AFi) for forests, to name a few.
CDP’s 2024 Integrated questionnaire offers a unified approach to environmental reporting and is fully aligned with the IFRS S2 climate standard as issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) and the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations. The questionnaire is also substantially aligned with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and partially aligned with TNFD recommendations. Through official partnerships with the EU’s standard-setter, EFRAG, and the TNFD, the work towards a greater alignment is in progress. CDP’s Accredited Solutions Providers are available to support organizations with understanding the reporting requirements relevant to their business.
