GLOBAL INSTITUTIONAL KNOWLEDGE BASE · SINGAPORE

Read global standard-setting
before it becomes disclosure.

Sustainability News Network is a dedicated institutional knowledge base that tracks, interprets and connects global sustainability standard-setting through a Pre-Disclosure Evidence Infrastructure perspective.

We examine the evidence, responsibilities, implementation boundaries and institutional relationships that form before requirements enter reporting, assurance and market use.
ISSB + GSSB · PROJECT SCHEDULESSNN deep interpretation

Two standard-setting calendars.
One institutional reading.

Both schedules are read through the same controlled method: current stage, next milestone and implementation boundary.

ISSB23 AUG 2026
OFFICIAL PROJECT SCHEDULE

The ISSB work plan is moving from research into standard-setting decisions.

The official ISSB work plan shows nature-related disclosures advancing toward an Exposure Draft, human capital remaining at a project-direction decision point and SASB Standards enhancements moving through feedback and amendment stages.

GSSB23 AUG 2026
OFFICIAL PROJECT SCHEDULE

The GSSB pipeline is entering a decision-heavy phase.

The official GSSB project schedule concentrates several approval milestones in the second half of 2026. SNN reads this as a governance and implementation-capacity signal, not as evidence that scheduled standards are already effective.

INTERPRETATION PROTOCOL

Same method.
Same boundary.

Planned dates are treated as estimates. A schedule entry is not represented as an approved, published or effective requirement.

01

Current stage

What the official project record says the board is doing now.

02

Next milestone

What decision, consultation or publication is expected next.

03

Implementation boundary

What reporting teams should monitor without treating the schedule as a current requirement.
