Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) sustainability lecture series 2012

Sara Kassam, Energy & Environment Manager, UEL, emailed EAUC Members to say that CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) had given a lecture at the University of East London and she thought the speaker was excellent. CIMA has done a lot of work on the role of accountants in embedding sustainability which she felt could be an interesting way to engage colleagues in Finance.

During the presentation, the speaker, Andrew Jones made reference to various reports which are available to view or download from the CIMA website. The list of reports is below.
