Dear colleagues and friends,

Following up one the below, just a quick reminder that we invite you to our next Accounting for Impact event: Academics' participation in the policymaking process which will take place in 2 weeks!

This workshop will build the capacity of (academic) participants to engage with the process of policymaking. It will provide information on resources available to contribute their expertise to problems of public interest in the field of social and environmental accounting. The session will equip attendees to:
