Abstract

The paper consists of the application of the Koundouri et al (2023)'s methodology to integrate SDGs into the Sustainability Reporting Framework for the Case Study of Lavrio Port in Greece. This novel holistic framework consists of downscaling the UN SDSN Sustainable Development Report's methodology to a corporate (private or public) level to support the transformation of the companies in line with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. The methodology builds on the ESG rating tool of the Hellenic Republic Asset Development Fund, the sole shareholder of the Port Authority of Lavrio, who had developed a thorough list of ESG Key performance Indicators to assess and support the sustainability performance of its portfolio. This framework is intended to provide a baseline for measuring sustainability performance of the Port of Lavrio, as it is undergoing a sustainability transformation employing a systems innovation approach.
