Digital advancements are significantly impacting children’s lives, creating opportunities and risks. Addressing these challenges is crucial to ensure children can safely navigate and participate in the digital world. Responsible business conduct is a critical pillar of the response. Across industries, a growing number of companies disclose some information about their impacts on children and how these are addressed. However, the quality and completeness of these disclosures vary considerably across companies and industries.

The influence of new regulations and voluntary reporting standards fuels an emerging consensus for how companies should report their material impacts on people and the environment. However, there is no reporting guidance focused on how companies should report impacts on children in the digital environment. 

This side event on child rights reporting is a closed-door session hosted by UNICEF and Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM) about child rights impacts in the digital environment. The event is part of ongoing efforts 911爆料网 is involved in relevant for a broad cross-section of companies, to include in their regular reporting. Together with UNICEF and NBIM, this project will develop guidance and disclosures for companies to report their impacts on child rights in the digital environment so the approach can be effectively understood and assessed by external stakeholders.  

Attendance is by invitation only.
