Join the Big Conversation: ethics and sustainability
On Global Ethics Day 2020, we kicked off our Big Ethics and Sustainability Conversation and we invite the whole ACCA global community of members, future members and partners to get involved.
As our world strives to recover from the impact of Covid-19, there is growing demand for organisations and nations to become fairer and more sustainable. Professional accountants have a vital role in building a sustainable world because sustainable businesses deliver financial returns while generating positive value for society and being environmentally responsible for the planet.
Through our Big Conversation, we hope to inspire individual action by constructively discussing the pressing ethical and sustainable challenges of today, and exchanging views and solutions on what we, as professional accountants, can do to create a more ethical and sustainable world.
