ECA wins UN award

The Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) has won the 2023 International Standards of Accounting and Reporting Honors (ISAR Honors) in recognition of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) reporting through its Integrated Planning and Reporting Toolkit (IPRT).

The IPRT is a web application sponsored by the ECA. It was developed in response to the needs of African countries to simultaneously adopt and integrate both the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Agenda 2063 into their national development. This enabled member countries to report their progress on the SDGs and Agenda 2063 in a harmonized way.

ISAR Honors, an initiative of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), raises awareness and facilitates the dissemination of national and international best practices on sustainability and SDG reporting as an integral part of annual reporting by companies.
