7、ultistakeholder collaboration and public-private cooperation.It maintains and integrates a robust process to continuously identify and assess risks to governance,from internal auditing and personnel training rates of in-house Code of Conduct training increased to 90%during 2022-2023 to providing pub
8、lic value around this topic,including the production of its flagship Global Risks Report and its Partnering Against Corruption Initiative.As the People Pillar reveals,the Forum has been preparing its workforce for the future of work.It increased its learning budget by 45%over the past year to CHF1.4
9、 million,to reinforce and expand offers established in the previous year and to open additional programmes and more spaces to learners.It also started a process of reporting on learning and development opportunities.Additionally,the Forum significantly increased its hiring and upheld its Early Caree
10、rs Programme aimed at young professionals,with 45 participants hired in the year,and a large portion of previous cohorts hired into permanent roles:33%from the first cohort and 54%from the second cohort of the programme.Progress was also made in enhancing the diversity of the workforce,with the numb
11、er of nationalities represented rising to 95.There was greater gender balance at most levels of the organization.As stated in the Planet Pillar,the Forum pursued its efforts to reduce emissions in line with its commitment to achieve net zero by 2030.In comparison to the baseline of fiscal year 2019-
12、2020,emissions decreased by 37.7%but,as in-person events returned to the calendar,CO2e emissions increased by 48.8%year-on-year to reach 60,711 tonnes as of June 2023.Scope 3 emissions,which include flights and travel of Forum constituents and stakeholders,accounted for 98.6%of these emissions.The F
13、orum continued to purchase carbon removal credits to offset emissions and maintained its adherence to the UN Global Compact.Additionally,the Forum invested in building a new energy plant in Davos to provide green energy and reduce CO2 emissions in the future.More broadly,the Forum mobilized its plat
14、form structure and convening power to support nature,climate,economic transformation and technology initiatives,including new efforts this year to address nature loss and freshwater availability.Social value creation is at the heart of the Forums mission,as the Prosperity Pillar shows.Over the last
15、year,the organization maintained its significant indirect economic impact through the work of its centres and events to promote collaboration between society,political and business leaders in the service of enhancing socio-economic progress.Additionally,in the reporting period,the Forums investments
16、 in its One Digital strategy and the Global Collaboration Village helped Forum communities pursue their efforts to tackle the worlds most complex challenges more efficiently.At events,such as the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting,the Forum supported the prosperity of the areas local communities.Fo
17、r example,collaboration with Davos restaurants helped fund local youth group initiatives,while non-reusable furniture and plants were offered to the community through the GreenUp initiative.This stakeholder metrics report,audited by Mazars,and the developing picture that the Forum is creating of its
18、 performance and impact,reveals just how much more there is to annual reporting than a set of financial measures.As with everything it does,the Forum strives to be transparent,using this report as a tool for its leadership and all those who engage with the organization,to ensure that it remains acco

27、foundation under the supervision of the Swiss federal authorities.The Board of Trustees supervises the Forums activities and its respective bodies.Board members are elected by appointment,and the composition of the Board consists of a diverse group of stakeholders representing global society(interna
28、tional organizations,government,business,civil society,academia and think-tanks)who advance Forum values and objectives on the most critical issues related to economics,society,the environment and technology.Trustees of the World Economic Forum are all accomplished and respected leaders in their own
29、 fields.Serving on the Board of Trustees is based solely on the will to actively contribute to the Forums mission.Board members do not receive remuneration for serving on the Board.Their individual calibre,combined with the diversity of their respective backgrounds,ensures that the Board delivers it
30、s oversight duties independently of any vested interest and focuses solely on the Forums mission.On 30 June 2023,the Board of Trustees had 28 members(10 women and 18 men),with an average tenure of three terms.More information on the Forums governing body is available in the Forums statutes and regul

70、lications is The Global Risks Report,released every year in January and regarded worldwide as a key source of leaders insights on perception and expectations for the new year.In the 2023 edition,six of the top 10 risks over a 10-year period identified in the report were linked to the environment.The
71、 first of these top 10 risks,identified as“Failure to mitigate climate change”,exemplifies the importance for the Forum of keeping climate on its agenda to stay relevant and operating in a way that is consistent with the climate crisis in order not to damage the Forums credibility as a climate actio
72、n leader.Besides this essential publication,the Forum places great value on its effective internal enterprise risk management framework,which is reviewed and enhanced every year.Furthermore,on the basis of the Forums strategy,potential deviations from the set goals are assessed and their impact on t
73、he organization are evaluated.Therefore,the Forum maintains and integrates a robust process to continuously identify and assess its most important risks.The approach includes multiple interviews with Senior Management and determining meaningful measures to address and mitigate the Forums key risks.I
74、t is essential for the Forum to have a profound understanding of its risks and to ensure that these are addressed adequately.The Forum understands that risks that occur simultaneously are particularly dangerous for an organization.Therefore,it also produces a risk dependency matrix where the correla
75、tion between the occurrence of risks is measured and illustrated.The Audit and Risk Committee of the Board of Trustees directs the Forum on risk management at the advice of the Chief Legal Officer and the Head of Risk,Assurance and Process Improvement.A report is produced yearly.Changes to the organ
76、izations risk landscape are monitored during the year,and any relevant changes are communicated to the Audit and Risk Committee and the Managing Board.Opportunity:Through its governance bodies as well as its many communities and activities,the World Economic Forum is continuously tuned in to the cha
77、nging global landscape and is thus well positioned to anticipate trends,identify threats and recognize opportunities where public-private cooperation is required to create a more inclusive,sustainable and resilient world.For example,the EDISON Alliance,convened by the Forum,aims to advance digital i
78、nclusion by helping to provide affordable access to digital services to 1 billion people by 2025.The Alliance represents an unprecedented collaboration between the information and communication technologies community and the health,education and finance sectors,all committed to driving systems chang

80、o harness the purchasing power of leading global companies to unlock the potential of the emerging technologies needed to decarbonize the world by 2050.The Coalition is marshalling leading companies to apply their purchasing power to create guaranteed early markets for advanced technologies to scale
81、 up the next generation of net-zero solutions for carbon-intensive sectors.The Coalition represents an unprecedented,credible demand signal of over$12 billion for clean technologies and solutions that are necessary to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors.This global programme has members in 22 countrie
82、s on four continents.1t.org is part of the World Economic Forums efforts to accelerate nature-based solutions.It was set up to support the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration.Since its launch in 2020,over 80 companies have pledged to conserve,restore and grow more than 7 billion trees in over 65 coun
83、tries.Another example is the Forums Reskilling Revolution platform,which aims to provide 1 billion people with better education,skills and economic opportunities by 2030.Since its launch in Measuring Stakeholder Metrics:Disclosures 2022-202311January 2020,the initiative has reached over 350 million
84、people worldwide,providing learners and workers with the education,reskilling and upskilling opportunities needed to prepare for the future economy and society.These kinds of innovative public-private partnerships provide a new way to address the climate crisis and economic and social issues by comb

92、2023,the total headcount was 907 across all Forum offices,an increase of 8.4%over last years figure of 837.Employees distinct nationalities,primary and additional,numbered 95,one more than in the last reporting period.Both nationalities of employees with dual citizenship were counted in the total nu
93、mber of distinct nationalities.A slight majority of employees(51%)had European nationality.The data shows a small percentage of unknown nationalities because the Forum is not allowed to ask for the nationality of employees in the US offices;the law only allows asking staff if they are authorized to
94、work in the United States.For Americans whose nationalities are confirmed,some of whom work in the office in Switzerland,this data is reflected in the following charts.Due to similar legal restrictions on collecting race and ethnicity data,the Forum does not have adequate information to report on th

98、in addition to the Managing Board.Most employees are employed in Level 1(34.5%)and Level 2(47.2%)roles,which together account for 81.7%of the total headcount.The remaining 18.3%is distributed between Level 3(13%),Level 4(4.2%)and Managing Board members(1.1%).The four levels are differentiated mainly
99、 by the contribution and impact expected at each progressive level,with Level 1 consisting primarily of entry-level individual contributor roles that require a high level of supervision,and Level 4 comprising senior professionals who are accountable for establishing group-wide priorities and achievi
100、ng organizational objectives.The leadership levels at the Forum are generally considered to be Level 3 and above(18.3%of the total headcount),where many employees have accountability for teams and budgets.0102030405060708090100FY-22/23FemaleMaleManaging BoardManaging BoardManaging BoardLevel 4Level

102、g tables provide gender data by level over the past three years.With the Managing Board 30%smaller this year than at the same time last year(7 Managing Board Members instead of 10),the percentage of female representation on the Board reduced slightly to 29%.A similar decrease in the overall populati
103、on at the leadership level,Level 4,also took a proportionate toll on female representation at that level,which was 26%at the end of this fiscal year.As the Forum continued to rebuild its leadership ranks after the COVID-19 pandemic,it committed to hiring and developing more female leaders to improve
104、 upon these figures.The representation of men and women at the other levels remained similar to previous years,with a slight increase in the percentage of male employees at the lower level of the organization(from 29%to 32%over the past three years)and a corresponding decrease in the percentage of w
105、omen at the same level(from 71%to 68%).While much progress remains to be made,this trend is positive,helping to correct the current over-representation of women at the more junior levels of the organization.Measuring Stakeholder Metrics:Disclosures 2022-202315In terms of generational diversity at th
106、e Forum,the median age as of June 2023 was 36.The overall distribution of generations across the employee population held steady from last year,with Gen Y(1981-1996)representing the greatest share of employees at the Forum,at 69%.The proportion of employees from Gen Z(born after 1997)also increased
107、over the last year to 6%from 4%last year,while the share of those born between 1965 and 1980 decreased by two percentage points.The following chart shows the age distribution and evolution over the past three years:Generations(%),2021-20231009080706050403020100Baby Boomers(1946-1964)Gen X(1965-1980)

109、elopment offerings,presenting an inclusive range and scale across roles and levels.The Coaching Programme was opened to all employees wishing to apply,offering access to a network of over 2,000 coaches,allowing each individual to select coaching in their native language and cultural context.This dim
110、ension of the reporting is aligned with SDG Goal 10.2:By 2030,empower and promote the social,economic and political inclusion of all,irrespective of age,sex,disability,race,ethnicity,origin,religion or economic or other status.METRICCORE METRICRESPONSEPay equalityRatio of the basic salary and remune
111、ration for each employee category by significant locations of operation for priority areas of equality:women to men,minor to major ethnic groups,and other relevant equality areas.For over a decade,the Forum has licensed a proprietary regression model to conduct an equal salary analysis and used the
112、results of that assessment to address outlying cases where observable salary differences were attributable solely to gender.The most recent salary assessment in Switzerland,conducted by PwC in June 2021 and audited by Mazars,confirmed that the Forum met Swiss legal requirements for equal remuneratio
113、n,with observable differences between salaries paid to women and men averaging less than 5%.As of 2021,the same principle also held in the results of a salary audit conducted voluntarily in the US offices.In July 2023,the Forum renewed its agreement with PwC to conduct a salary analysis using the sa

227、Scope 2 emissions was driven mainly by the IT servers better performance.Scope 1 emissions are not relevant since the Forum does not have material emissions from corporate facilities other than electricity consumption(Scope 2)or from owned vehicles.Forum CO2e emissions over time and across Scopes 2
228、and 3,2020-2023In FY-22/23,67%of total Forum emissions were linked to the Annual Meeting in Davos-Klosters,mainly driven by participant and support staff flights.The next largest category of emissions was related to other in-person meetings,representing 23%of the total.This ratio increased compared
229、to last year because the Forum organized important events,such as the Annual Meeting of the New Champions in China,the Growth Summit and the Industry Strategy Meeting on its premises in Cologny and the Sustainable Development Impact Meetings in New York,among others.Forum Climate ChangeScope 2Scope

233、 CO2e emissions analysis for Scope 2 included electricity in the major offices(Geneva,San Francisco,New York,Beijing)as well as the impact of virtual server use.Internally,the Forum operated under a robust sustainability management system that includes the highest standard of sustainability for meet
234、ings(ISO 20121 recertification was obtained at the Annual Meeting in May 2022 followed by the Surveillance Audit during the 2023 edition),an annual audited global CO2e footprint,as well as a CO2e reduction plan that will be in line with Science Based Targets Initiative(SBTi)standards to achieve the
235、net zero by 2030 commitment.While the Forum cannot get formal approval of its SBTi aligned reduction strategy as a not-for-profit,it will nevertheless be reviewed by its auditors.A robust set of policies governed the procurement processes and work with vendors,along with an updated sustainability st
236、rategy document.The focus continued to be on reducing emissions on the journey to reach net zero by the 2030 target.Actions included reducing internal travel to only essential trips,hosting in-person meetings only when being physically present made a major difference to outcomes,and exploring even m
237、ore ways of reducing the transportation and operational footprint of the Annual Meeting.The Forum continued to purchase carbon removal credits according to its emissions and maintained its adherence to the UN Global Compact while adapting the internal sustainability strategy,as the science defining
238、what is required to limit the global temperature rise evolves.Externally,with the increased adoption of ESG reporting and broad recognition that everyone must reduce emissions,and as companies look for best practices and innovative approaches to decarbonize,the Forums global platform provided opport
239、unities for industries to make progress.The Climate Governance Initiative established a global network of national and regional chapters to promote the implementation of the Climate Governance Principles,by mobilizing non-executive directors who either are locally based or serve on the boards of loc
240、ally based companies and providing a range of engagement opportunities aimed at enabling them to drive action in this area.The initiative instituted more than a dozen chapters in multiple geographies.The Forum maintained efforts to encourage climate action through the Alliance of CEO Climate Leaders
241、,the largest CEO-led climate alliance globally.Its membership comprised more than 120 CEOs from 12 industrial sectors present in 26 countries,representing 9 million employees.This alliance embodies a network of business leaders from diverse industry sectors and regions with the power to accelerate t
242、he pace of climate action within value chains and markets.Additionally,the Forum continued work on a range of climate-related initiatives whose impacts are described in the World Economic Forum Annual Report 2022-2023(First Movers Coalition,Global New Mobility Coalition,Global Commission on Nature P
243、ositive Cities).Of note is that the focus on climate topics grew to such an extent that every Forum platform maintained at least one climate-focused work stream.Climate change during the year was also a focus at major events,such as at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2023,the Sustainable Dev

266、of the Global Freshwater Challenge.This marks the first of five innovation challenges,which garnered over 200 submissions.The Aquapreneurs are making an impact on global water security by improving irrigation efficiency,recycling water in large building developments and creating fresh drinking water
267、 from the atmosphere.Over the next four years,the Aquapreneur Innovation Initiative will continue to source innovations for freshwater security and connect these entrepreneurs in a first-of-its-kind innovation ecosystem for water so they can expand and address one of the most pressing problems human
268、ity faces.Through this initiative,the Forum gathered stakeholders from the freshwater innovation ecosystem in New York for a workshop during the first UN Water Conference in almost 50 years to discuss current and future opportunities for collaboration and funding and to identify additional critical
269、stakeholders to involve in the future.The Forum also continued to foster partnerships and collaboration for water stewardship through the 2030 Water Resources Group and the 50L Home Coalition.Moreover,UpLink launched three challenges related to fresh water or ocean-related issues:Global Freshwater C

288、 other materials.This continuous,yearly effort minimizes waste and supports the Davos community as much as possible.Also,the use of PET inside the Congress Centre was banned during the Annual Meeting in Davos-Klosters.At the premises in Geneva,New York and San Francisco,all individual desk bins were
289、 removed and replaced with shared waste-sorting stations.This fosters employee awareness regarding waste and improves the quality of waste sorting,which,in turn,fosters higher recycling rates.In addition,the Forum launched and supported several projects during the year,including the Circular Transfo
