Overview

For decades and perhaps centuries, profitability has been the overriding measure of performance. Today, we realise people and the planet need to be placed on par with profitability. This is what society now demands. The world is on a mission-critical journey to halt a worsening climate crisis this decade. Accountants have a fundamental obligation to collaborate over a just transition, ensuring no one is left behind.

In this webinar we discuss:

  • how the accountancy profession can balance people, planet and profit
  • the importance of a just transition
  • practical implications of people, planet and profit
  • implications for those developing transition plans – key recommendations
  • the relevance to the profession
  • risks of inaction
  • recommendations of key priorities in coming years.

A personalised certificate of completion is available for dowload in the webinar platform.

This webinar was first broadcast in November 2023 as part of ACCA's annual, global flagship conference, Accounting for the future.
