Several ESG methodologies (Refinitiv, Morningstar Sustainalytics, Ecovadis, LSEG) reviewed and equipped with analysis of scientific articles in Indonesia and English language. This step aims to obtain the results of the design of elements, aspects, indicators, case studies by previous ESG researchers and practitioners, and the mechanism for calculating and classifying awards based on the scores obtained from a matrix design. This matrix will be supported by pilot tests based on simulation analysis at AMQ Islamic Boarding School, East Java, Indonesia.
