A Climate Leaders’ Programme project
Vanessa Stutz (Johnston Associates) has a mission to empower people in the accounting profession to collaborate and upskill in preparation for what she sees as an unprecedented time of change.
Vanessa’s project acknowledges the unique position of accountants as trusted business advisers within and external to professional organisations. Enabled to raise hard questions, get conversations started and provide necessary financial information, accountants can inform and influence sound decision-making. In the era of climate change this would mean greater understandings of an organisation’s environmental impact and impending business risks caused by climate change and biodiversity loss.
If you are an accountant interested in sustainability matters and/or shaping the role of the accountancy profession in climate action please get in touch.
