\n\tWe are deeply saddened for the loss of our friend, colleague and mentor Professor Rob Gray.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n\tRob pioneered the field of social and environmental accounting (SEA) and was the founder of the Centre for Social and Environmental Accounting Research (CSEAR)<\/a>, of the Social and Environmental Accounting (now Accountability) Journal and established the CSEAR UK Conference in the early 1990s, which has now developed into a series of local and regional CSEAR conferences all over the world.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n\tRob’s publications have appeared in several journals and have been cited over 31,000 times. His work has been seminal for many of us, as it has inspired social and environmental accounting research and will continue to do so for many years ahead.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n\tRob was an incredible scholar, committed, engaged, a great mentor and good friend.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n\t <\/div>\n
\n\tRob, your loss has been devastating for all of us across the CSEAR community. We will all miss you dearly. Thank you for all you have done to pave the way and create our field. We will work hard to continue your legacy to make the world a better place.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
