GRI Level C Report Template

The “Let’s Report!” template was created by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) in order to offer an easy way for organizations to prepare a basic GRI sustainability report. The template is available for free in different languages including Chinese, English, French and Spanish on the GRI website. Please note that in order to be accepted as a COP, a 'statement of continued support for the Global Compact' must be added to the template-based report.
