Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is the architect of a system of global sustainability standards that provides a common global language to assess and report on environmental, social and economic impacts. Beyond standards, GRI creates tools and training that empower organizations of all sizes to create sustainable, long-term value – benefiting people and planet.

For almost 30 years, GRI has engaged in a global multi-stakeholder process to define and refine the global best practice for sustainability reporting. Today, the GRI Standards are the world’s most widely used sustainability reporting standards.

GRI is an international nonprofit organization, headquartered in the Netherlands, with staff in more than 20 countries. Working at GRI, you will be part of a team – One GRI – that is committed to unlocking positive change in the world.
