Describes the quantifiable social and environmental targets set by the organization.
Organizations should footnote details on specific targets, timeframes for accomplishing these targets, and how results will be measured for these targets. See usage guidance for further information.
This metric is intended to capture the organization’s social and/or environmental targets. Typically consistent with the organization's mission, these targets should be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time bound. Other IRIS metrics can be used to measure progress towards these goals.
This metric may be used in conjunction with Social Impact Objectives (OD6247) and/or Environmental Impact Objectives (OD4108). For example, an organization can have a Social Impact Objective of providing access to clean water and sanitation, with specific targets regarding the total amount of clean water provided and the number of individuals to which it is provided.
Organizations are also encouraged to report this metric in conjunction with Social and Environmental Performance Reporting (OI4732) and Social and Environmental Performance Risk Assessment (OI9106).
Metrics identified as "cross-category" are those that are relevant to any IRIS+ Impact Category or Impact Theme (i.e., these metrics are not specific to any particular industry/category or theme).
