Background of the Study

International sustainability frameworks, such as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), provide guidelines for corporate environmental policies. These frameworks encourage businesses to adopt sustainable practices, reduce environmental impacts, and align their operations with global standards. In Nigeria, where industrial activities contribute significantly to environmental challenges, these frameworks have become instrumental in shaping corporate environmental policies.

Many Nigerian corporations are integrating international sustainability frameworks into their operations to enhance transparency, attract investments, and comply with global trade requirements. However, challenges such as limited awareness, weak regulatory enforcement, and resource constraints affect the implementation of these frameworks. This study explores the role of international sustainability frameworks in shaping Nigerian corporate environmental policies, focusing on their impact and challenges.

Statement of the Problem

While international sustainability frameworks offer valuable guidelines for corporate environmental policies, their adoption in Nigeria is often inconsistent. Issues such as inadequate regulatory support, lack of technical expertise, and resistance to change hinder their effective implementation. This study investigates how international sustainability frameworks influence corporate environmental policies in Nigeria and identifies barriers to their adoption.

Objectives of the Study

  1. To examine the influence of international sustainability frameworks on Nigerian corporate environmental policies.

  2. To identify challenges faced by Nigerian corporations in adopting international sustainability frameworks.

  3. To propose strategies for enhancing the integration of international sustainability frameworks in Nigerian corporate policies.

Research Questions

  1. How do international sustainability frameworks influence corporate environmental policies in Nigeria?

  2. What challenges hinder the adoption of international sustainability frameworks in Nigerian corporations?

  3. What strategies can improve the integration of international sustainability frameworks in Nigerian corporate policies?

Research Hypotheses

  1. International sustainability frameworks significantly influence Nigerian corporate environmental policies.

  2. Challenges such as regulatory gaps and limited technical expertise hinder the adoption of international sustainability frameworks.

  3. Improved regulatory support and capacity-building programs will enhance the adoption of international sustainability frameworks in Nigeria.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

The study focuses on the role of international sustainability frameworks in shaping Nigerian corporate environmental policies. Limitations include the varying levels of framework adoption across industries and the availability of data on corporate practices.
