World Benchmarking Alliance to be established in Australia 

Have you wondered how Australian companies are performing against the SDG’s?  The World Benchmarking Alliance wants to find out.  

Join us for a conversation with Michelle Gortan, CEO of Macdoch Foundation, and Gerbrand Haverkamp and Pauliina Murphy from the World Benchmarking Alliance. 

WBA are here to launch their Australian office, which will focus on the progress of locally-based companies including Coles and Woolworths, National Australia Bank, AMPOL and Woodside.

Learn more about WBA’s role in helping companies measure their performance against the SDGs, and which companies they are targeting in Australia.  Hear about the Nature and Food and Agriculture benchmarking work. And about how governments and philanthropic foundations around the world are using WBA benchmarking data to guide their investment decisions.  

ABOUT THE WORLD BENCHMARKING ALLIANCE 

The World Benchmarking Alliance (WBA) was launched in 2018 to drive change in the way that business impact. They look at the world’s largest listed companies including those which reside in Australia.

WBA develops transformative benchmarks that compare more than 2,000 influential companies’ performance on the SDGs. The benchmarks are backed by the best available science, while leveraging existing international norms and standards. 

In 2025, WBA is establishing an Australian office to deepen the level of engagement with local business, with a special focus on food, agriculture and nature.
