Assessing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Webinar
Date: 4th August 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Venue: Virtual Delivery

Overview

The assessment of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions has become a critical component of modern financial reporting, sustainability disclosure and corporate accountability. As global and national regulatory frameworks continue to emphasize transparency in environmental performance, organizations are increasingly required to measure, verify, manage, and report their GHG emissions in line with internationally recognized standards.

Understanding GHG assessment enables professionals to better support organizations in meeting compliance obligations, preparing credible sustainability reports and contributing to global climate action initiatives. Frameworks such as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, ISO 14064 standards, and the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards (IFRS S1 & S2) guide entities in establishing consistent methodologies for emission quantification and disclosure.

This webinar will unpack the key concepts, processes, and reporting requirements related to GHG emissions. It will address the challenges faced by accountants, auditors and sustainability professionals in collecting accurate data, understanding Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, and aligning their assessments with emerging regulatory expectations, including Kenya’s evolving sustainability reporting landscape. The session aims to equip participants with practical knowledge on conducting high-quality emissions assessments, supporting decision-making, enhancing stakeholder confidence, and promoting best practices in environmental reporting across sectors.

The webinar will highlight key aspects of Assessing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions relating to the following:

  • Introduction to Greenhouse Gas Emissions
  • Understanding GHGs, sources and categories (Scope 1, Scope 2 & Scope 3)
  • Relevance to financial reporting and sustainability disclosures
