Peer learning & further content development

User experience is a key part of the ongoing development of UNEP FI’s impact analysis and management resources. Working Groups and Communities of Practice comprising leading experts with diverse backgrounds are set up on a needs basis to support the development and iteration process of the different resources as well as to facilitate peer learning.

Below are the current opportunities to engage.

  • Community of Practice on ESRS Impact Materiality Assessment: The ESRS Community of Practice supports UNEP FI member banks in the practical implementation of the ESRS impact materiality assessment. It provides a space to exchange practices and challenges, discuss regulatory developments, and refine the UNEP FI–ESRS Interoperability Package.
  • Review Group on Bank Contribution: UNEP FI aims to establish a common approach for banks to define, measure, and communicate their contribution to the SDGs or global societal goals, bridging gaps between the global framework and existing sustainability standards. Deliverables include a narrative paper for the 2026 FFD Forum and a searchable repository of bank-specific indicators, helping create consistency, efficiency, and influence future policy. This initiative addresses fragmented practices and prepares the sector for the post-2030 sustainability agenda.
  • Review Group on Sector Impact Materiality: UNEP FI is upgrading its Sectors Mapping into a Sector Impact Materiality Matrix to improve clarity, interoperability, and sector–impact guidance. The updated tool will support materiality assessments, due diligence, portfolio screening, and impact target-setting. It is being developed with input from peer organizations, practitioners, and topical experts to ensure it is practical, consistent, and widely usable.
