Sustainability will never do without Governments
Episode 3
Friday, 26 November, 2021
In our third episode of season three we continue our discussion on sustainability reporting standards with Accountancy Europe's senior manager Paul Gisby, this time with a focus on governments, mainly excluded from our last debate.Governments make up a major part of the world economy with currently no internationally accepted standard for sustainability reporting, or for other elements of NFI reporting. Therefore it is crucial for the public sector to be held accountable through sustainable reporting standards tp help us reach our global climate goals. Tune in to hear how this necessary change for the public sector is a pillar of Accountancy Europe's Green Recovery Counts campaign and how we are working on pushing for more action from national governments in public sector NFI and sustainability reporting. Have a listen to what would happen if governments were obliged to do sustainability reporting and what kind of difference that could make in helping us achieve global climate goals. And how can we go about putting the wheels in motion for this?Stay tuned to hear more about updates on EU financial and non-financial matters and follow us on iTunes, Spotify and more!For further information on the podcast, please contact: news@accountancyeurope.euPhoto Credit: Accountancy Europe, 2021 Hosted on Acast.
