Abstract: Abstract Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and other certifying and verifying organizations participate in and deliver services in a number of environmental, social, and governance areas. NGOs often administer humanitarian and related programs at a significant scale around the world. Companies often partner with NGOs to deliver on their ESG commitments, particularly with respect to alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals. Similarly, businesses engage with recognized certifying and verifying organizations to assess corporate practices and operations, such as water stewardship and agricultural practices.
