In this special episode, we explain what this statement actually means. And why a professional accounting organisation like ours is actively supporting reconciliation.  

And we ask the tough questions, such as, is this an appropriate thing for businesses to be doing? And is there a risk that some will engage in so-called ‘social washing?

Providing perspective and insights on this important issue are two experts from CPA Australia. 

Simone Spaulding, CPA Australia Senior Manager, Culture, Capability and Wellbeing, and Patrick Viljoen, CPA Australia Senior Manager Environmental, Social and Governance Policy.
