Across the Australian agricultural ecosystem there is a need to better understand the holistic trends, gaps, and opportunities to accelerate Australia’s response to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations.
To support this, AIA led the development of an ESG State-of-Play Report, which provided an initial understanding of the landscape and view of current RDC investments and activities in material and emerging ESG areas.
It also identified opportunities for cross-sectoral collaboration through AIA in First Nations engagement, a whole of sector ESG materiality assessment, and support for levy payers in regulatory compliance and reporting.
The report was delivered to the Council of RDCs in September 2023.
