Comprising four pillars (standards, financing, capacity building, and market mechanisms), 17 strategies, 50 deliverables, and six key enablers, the framework’s overarching goal is to expedite the adoption of sustainable practices among manufacturing firms. During Phase 1.0 (2024-2026), MITI will offer guidance to facilitate a “Just Transition” towards ESG compliance, particularly for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

MITI will play a central role in raising awareness and promoting the i-ESG Framework among manufacturing companies, with a particular focus on MSMEs. Visitors will:
– Gain insights into the framework’s significance and sustainable ESG practices.
– Receive hands-on guidance for utilizing i-ESGReady, an ESG Readiness Assessment tool developed to help companies evaluate their current ESG adoption level.
– Be introduced to i-ESGStart, a starter kit offering practical guidance, step-by-step instructions, illustrative examples, and templates for manufacturing businesses, which empowers organizations to create sustainability reports aligned with their specific stakeholder requirements.
