In the October edition of AB, we continue to feature articles supporting ACCA’s current theme ‘Rethinking sustainable business’, with an interview with Dani Marunović FCCA, CFO of the Global Reporting Initiative.

We learn how the GRI seeks to enable organisations to use a global common language to report their climate-related impacts. And Marunović tells of her desire throughout her professional career to work with organisations that can make a difference.

In another article, we hear how organisations in Mauritius are rising to their environmental responsibilities and explore the role of accounting professionals in this effort.

We also interview Fiona Nuwamanya FCCA who, as CFO of Uganda-based Rocket Health, is helping to change how healthcare is delivered in East Africa. An accountant with a passion for medicine, she explains the sense of purpose and satisfaction her contribution gives her.

Also this month, Felix Mutati FCCA, Zambia’s new minister of technology and science, writes about his government’s plans to transform the southern African country’s economy by embracing all things digital.

You will also find features on topics such as the tax impact on international cricket, and pitching with passion.

Don’t forget you can hear more about sustainability plus other trends and developments, and earn up to 20 CPD units, at this year’s ‘Accounting for the Future’ conference. See the programme for the virtual event, which runs from 23–25 November. To attend, register here, or watch on demand.
