A Frameworks Framing
Open corporate data in Wikirate through the lens of standards
Reporting on ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) parameters is crucial for investors and stakeholders to gain information about companies' sustainability from these three perspectives. Wikirate is the world’s largest open source registry of ESG data, crowdsourcing standardised data about companies on a large variety of metrics delivering an extremely valuable resource for instance for policy development. In recent years, various standards bodies have translate these abstract ESG guidelines into actionable and concrete performance metrics.
Within the scope of this grant Wikirate will improve the structuring and discoverability of information, giving a more consistent and concise view on the existing standards and framework. By exhaustively mapping metrics to frameworks, and improving better documentation, visualization and navigation, this project will contribute to smooth exploration and better understanding of millions of ESG data points as connected to corporate standards.
