Sustainability Reporting in North America: Challenges and Opportunities to Advance Indigenous Equity and Inclusion
Abstract
This chapter discusses the integration of Indigenous peoples and communities within global and Canadian sustainability reporting standards and frameworks, focusing on historical development and comparative analysis. Through a chronological review, it outlines the evolution of reporting standards/frameworks, tracing developments from early corporate social responsibility (CSR) to modern sustainability standards/frameworks, such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), and Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). The comparative analysis scrutinizes how these frameworks incorporate Indigenous issues, outlining observable gaps and inconsistencies in approach and comprehensiveness. This chapter highlights discrepancies in Indigenous inclusion and critiques the limitations of current practices. It concludes by suggesting improvements to enhance the representation of Indigenous rights and community engagement in sustainability reporting.
