Digital-ESG Transformed: Powering Sustainability in AI Age
DQ Institute, a global organization focused on digital intelligence, has launched the Digital-ESG Assessment and Reporting Standards in partnership with Taejae Future Consensus Institute. The launch took place during the "Digital Age, A Pathway to Sustainability" Forum, attended by prominent figures like Ban Ki-moon and Irina Bokova. The Digital-ESG guidelines aim to address digital-related risks, including AI risks, child online safety, fake news, and privacy invasions while fostering human-centered technology in the AI age.
The rapid advancement of AI and other technologies has
triggered a digital transformation, leading to various digital-related risks.
The existing ESG frameworks focus primarily on climate-related issues, leaving
digital concerns unaddressed. By incorporating Digital-ESG into sustainability
strategies, a balance can be achieved between leveraging technology's potential
and safeguarding citizens, the digital environment, and society.
The DQ Institute emphasizes addressing human-centered tech
initiatives, digital inclusion, data security, digital rights, and more. Dr.
Yuhyun Park, the founder of DQ Institute, expressed enthusiasm for the new
standards, aiming to provide industry leaders with practical tools and guidance
for adopting AI and digital technology with transparency and ethical standards.
