Promoting sustainability

ACCA has been contributing to the sustainability debate, with the overall aim of promoting transparency and responsible business practices around the world.

We have been closely involved in:

• promoting and rewarding transparency both through the ACCA Awards for sustainability reporting and by supporting the GRI Readers' Choice Awards
• the evolution and launch of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Guidelines
• the emerging trends in reporting and assurance, including integrated disclosures in annual reporting, different communication methods, e-reporting
• the development of carbon accounting and reporting standards
• government consultations on sustainability related issues
• lobbying for the transition to a low carbon economy
• the move towards mandatory reporting
• the evolution of social accounting practices

In terms of ACCA's own, internal work in the area of sustainability, please refer to the links down the left hand side of this page.
