Stakeholder Engagement and Materiality Assessment

Driving Change with Empowered Stakeholders and Key Material Insights

Stakeholder engagement and materiality assessments are vital components of a robust sustainability strategy. They make the starting point for defining ESG priorities in any business. Stakeholder engagement and the resulting materiality assessment help understand how, where, and to what extent to allocate resources and shape the corporate culture to make a real difference in the areas that matter most.

While stakeholder engagement involves identifying, understanding, and involving individuals or groups who have an interest or are affected by an organization’s activities, materiality assessment involves identifying and prioritizing the most significant sustainability issues of the organization and its stakeholders. The two generate a powerful synergy, the compounded effects businesses can harness.
