Evidence-based ESG monitoring for organisations operating in Zambia.
Plan your ESG commitments, submit evidence, and get independently reviewed and scored by the Technical Advisory Consortium — then generate the reports your board, lenders and partners actually need.
How the annual cycle works
One workflow, four stages, repeated every reporting year.
Organisations register, select a membership category and complete an initial ESG baseline assessment.
An annual action plan is created, then evidence is submitted each quarter against agreed indicators.
Technical Advisory Consortium reviewers inspect evidence, request clarification and score indicators.
Quarterly and annual scores are calculated, reports are generated, and approved content is published.
Five pillars, one 100-point score
Every organisation is assessed on the ZESG-100 framework: 25 indicators across five pillars, each rated on a 0–5 scale and weighted by the strength of the supporting evidence.
