I am excited to share with our respected readers that Russian accounting academic community joined global trend on Sustainable Development and gets involved into the international scope of discussion. The Working Group on Non-financial Reporting Committee of Higher School of Ecnomics submitted Response letter to the IFRS Consultation Paper on Sustainability Reporting. The working group includes six academics from various campuses of the School. I believe it to be a good start for future international activities for the Group and for Accounting Academics from Russia in the whole.
