The International Integrated Reporting Council and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland have published a new report describing how businesses can achieve Sustainable Development Goals.
The report, produced in partnership with the Green Economy Coalition, was written by professor Carol Adams of Durham University Business School in Durham, England. The report aims to help organisations improve their contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs, a set of goals promulgated by the United Nations in 2015 as part of its 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, while reducing corporate risk and increasing opportunities that arise from sustainable development issues.
