Established by HRH The Prince of Wales in 2004, the Project is developing practical tools to enable environmental and social performance to be better integrated into organisations’ core strategy and financial performance. Currently, the Project is piloting the “Connected Reporting Framework” and the A4S Decision-Making tool with key public, private and third sector partners.
Accountants have a key role to play in helping organisations effectively measure and account for their environmental and social performance, and ICAS is delighted to be at the cutting edge of developments in this area through its work with the A4S Project.

Accounting for Sustainability: responses to a resource-constrained world
The first Accounting for Sustainability Forum event, to be held in the St. James’s Palace State Apartments in London, hosted by The Prince of Wales, will bring together key stakeholders from the business, investor, academic, accounting, government and NGO communities who can make a significant contribution to delivering the solutions needed.
Invitees will be asked to actively participate throughout the day, bringing their experience, knowledge and ideas to establish a path towards solving the challenges faced. The focus will be on an honest appraisal of where the world is on this important agenda and what next steps are critical to accelerating the pace of impact of change. Contributions will be sought from all the groups present who have different roles to play and whose perspectives may well differ on what needs to happen.
