Forum members
During 2008, we established the Accounting for Sustainability Forum to take forward development of the tools and the reporting model.
One of the unique aspects of the Forum is that we have brought together an international grouping of accounting bodies to actively collaborate, both with each other and with a wide range of other organisations from the private and public sectors. This is a significant first step towards achieving a common approach to accounting for sustainability. Click here to find out more about the Accounting Bodies Network.
Representatives from the business, investor, academic, accounting, government and NGO sectors are also participants in the Forum.
