In this video, course instructor Carlos Zapata introduces environmental and sustainability standards and certifications as major tools required for sustainable global production and trade and for private sector sustainability leadership. As the global push for sustainability in all levels of business, government and life continues to increase, the need for sustainability standards is greater than ever. While it is essential to have ways to assess the legitimacy and performance of different initiatives, company and government buyers, as well as NGOs and civil society groups committed to sustainable production, need clarity on which standards and ecolabels are delivering real social, environmental and economic results.

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is a great, but very ambitious plan and many organizations are not familiar with the integration of the SDGs in their business and non-business operations. Most of the standards that we will review in this course will help us navigate, interpret and integrate the UN SDGs into our organization’s DNA. In this course we will learn the different and most relevant sustainability standards, such as the GRI, CDP, SASB, ISO, B-Corp, and others, as well as learning the differences between process versus performance standards.

By the end of this course, the student will gain the necessary knowledge and understanding of the most relevant sustainability standards and how to integrate and apply them into their organizations.
