contributions or making carbon reduction declarations, but taking little action. To prevent such behavior and to strengthen corporate focus on sustainable ESG disclosure, the International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation (IFRS Foundation) has developed a globally applicable set of sustainability disclosure standards with an accounting foundation\u2014the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards. In this article, we will start by introducing the IFRS Foundation, and then delve into the main content of the IFRS S1 as well as how Taiwan aligns with international sustainability disclosure standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"IFRS_Foundation_%E2%80%94_Sustainability_Disclosure\"><\/span><strong>IFRS Foundation \u2014 Sustainability Disclosure<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>IFRS Foundation is a non-profit organization responsible for developing high-quality global accounting standards, known as IFRS Standards. Their mission is to create standards that enhance transparency, accountability, and efficiency for financial markets worldwide. By fostering trust, growth, and long-term financial stability in the global economy, their work brings public interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IFRS Foundation oversees two organizations: International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). While IASB is responsible for publishing International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), ISSB is in charge of IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards (IFRS S1\/S2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large caption-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"IFRS Foundation Relationship                     \" class=\"wp-image-22021\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.tejwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">IFRS Foundation Relationship  (Source\uff1aTEJ)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards is based on SASB standards, TCFD framework, and IFRS accounting concept.

Moreover, risks and opportunities that can be reasonably estimated should be categorized as short-term, mid-term, and long-term. In other words, risks and opportunities that can\u2019t be reasonably estimated are not under the regulation of IFRS S1. Similar to \u201cConceptual Framework for Financial Reporting\u201d under IFRS, IFRS S1 also serves as a basis for all Sustainability Disclosure Standards, meaning that IFRS S2 and other versions that may be released should all abide by IFRS S1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"
