Dear Fellow Supporters of Integrated Reporting,
Call for Papers: Special Issue of Organization & Environment on “Non-Financial Disclosure and Real Sustainable Change Within and Beyond Organizations: Mechanisms, Outcomes and Complications”
We know surprisingly little about whether, why, and how sustainability information disseminated to stakeholders translates into sustainability-related “outcomes.” Insight into the causal chain that connects non-financial disclosure to outcomes such as reduced carbon emissions, enhanced biodiversity, or improved human rights is highly relevant but scarce. We believe that such outcomes hinge on the behavior of a diverse set of actors outside (e.g., equity and debt investors, the media, employees, governmental actors, nonprofit organizations, and pressure groups) and inside (e.g., board members, managers, and regular employees) of the disclosing organizations, and that these contexts of action require in-depth research.
