B4SI Global Director Clodagh Connolly appointed to the Europe & UK Council for the TISFD
We are thrilled to share that B4SI Global Director Clodagh Connolly has been selected to join the Europe & UK Council for the Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures (TISFD), a global disclosure framework to inform sustainable business practices and financial reporting standards.
As part of the Regional Council, Clodagh Connolly will contribute to defining how organisations around the world understand, measure, and report on social and inequality-related risks, opportunities, and business and financial practices. This appointment reflects B4SI’s deep expertise and ongoing commitment to shaping practical, decision-useful social-related disclosures.
The Regional Councils are advisory groups critical to ensuring that TISFD’s recommendations are globally relevant and tailored to different regions’ unique social, economic, and cultural contexts. They are also important for extending the engagement of TISFD to ensure that regional stakeholders are meaningfully engaged in the Taskforce and contributing to the development of its recommendations and guidance.
Participating in the Regional Council at an individual capacity, Clodagh looks forward to building on B4SI’s existing participation as an Alliance member and directly bring her subject-matter expertise in collaboration with other diverse voices across sectors to actively advance TISFD’s mission to help build a more equitable, inclusive, and accountable financial system through disclosures.
As a key contributor to the creation of the TISFD, responsibilities include:
- Collaborate in developing TISFD’s recommendations, contributing regional insights and strategic feedback to ensure relevant and actionable deliverables.
- Share lessons learned and insights on region-specific issues relevant to TISFD’s work within and across Regional Councils to inform global discussions on inequality and social-related financial disclosures and to contribute to building a global community of practice.
- Champion TISFD by sharing updates and insights with regional stakeholders to expand awareness of the Taskforce’s work and to share opportunities for engagement.
