The IFC Sustainability Framework articulates IFC's strategic commitment to sustainable development and is an integral part of our approach to risk management. It promotes sound environmental and social E&S practices, encourages transparency and accountability, and contributes to positive development impacts. IFC’s Performance Standards, which are part of the Sustainability Framework, have become globally recognized as a benchmark for environmental and social risk management in the private sector.
Presented by IFC’s environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) experts, this 75-minute webinar will provide a high-level overview of Performance Standard 5 (PS5) and how companies can avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible and minimize its impact on those displaced through mitigation measures. The webinar will also cover how active community engagement throughout the process is essential.
