Sustainability – Climate-Related Disclosures

Current Status of the Project

The IPSASB broke new ground approving its first Sustainability Reporting Standard (IPSASB SRS™) Exposure Draft (ED) 1, Climate-related Disclosures. The ED proposes disclosures for all public sector entities to report on their climate-related risks and opportunities, aligned with the private sector disclosures developed by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). The proposals also include additional public sector disclosures for those select entities responsible for the outcomes of climate-related policy programs. SRS ED 1 was published in October 2024 and will be open for comment until 28 February 2025.
