Governance for Resilience and Prosperity

By convening boards, executives, reporting leaders, investors, and policymakers, the initiative helps organizations translate systemic climate and nature disruption into stronger governance, better decision-useful reporting, and more resilient business practice.

Our objectives

Board leadership and strategic foresight and oversight

Through the Resilient Boards Network, the Forum convenes non-executive directors and board leaders in a trusted peer environment to strengthen boardroom judgment, foresight and governance capabilities on climate, nature and systemic risk.

Decision-useful reporting and transparency

Through the Reporting for Business Resilience Initiative, the Forum supports companies in reframing sustainability reporting as a strategic tool for communicating resilience, competitiveness and value creation — aligned with global efforts such as ISSB adoption, reporting convergence and practical implementation.

Governance, risk, and compliance

Strong governance depends on effective implementation. Through broader governance, risk and compliance dialogues, the initiative helps companies translate board intent and reporting requirements into robust governance processes, internal controls, risk management, assurance, compliance and policy engagement, creating confidence that strategy is being executed effectively.
