Sustainability
Overview
Welcome to the MIA Sustainability Resource Hub, one of our initiatives under the MIA Sustainability Roadmap to facilitate the implementation of the MIA Sustainability Blueprint for the Accountancy Profession.
In achieving future relevance and advancing our nation building purpose, the MIA strives to be aligned with the nation’s sustainability agenda. As partners to business, accountancy professionals must be equipped with the requisite tools and knowledge to propel the Malaysian sustainability movement in sync with major international accords and the sustainability agenda adopted by the global accountancy profession.
Built on a research and collaborative effort with a focus to provide a sustainability knowledge gateway to available insights, resources, and tools to support continuous learning and knowledge on sustainability. Whether you’re seeking guidance on best practices, access to frameworks or standards, emerging trends, this hub brings everything together in one easy-to-navigate platform.
