The International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) and The Prince's Accounting for Sustainability Project (A4S) have created a 'community website' on sustainability reporting.

The objective of the website is to help business leaders, finance professionals, academics, professional accountancy bodies and others exchange ideas and share good practice on how environmental and social performance can be better connected with strategy and financial performance, and embedded into day-to-day operations and decision-making.

One of the aspects of the site is a discussion forum on various topics. The forum is currently discussing "Accountants and integrated reporting - A look at key challenges". This online discussion is focused on reflections from the World Congress of Accountants held in Kuala Lumpur in November 2010 and seeks to answer the question "Integrated reporting means different things to different people. What do you think 'integrated reporting' should look like?" The outcomes from the discussion are expected to be passed onto the International Integrated Reporting Committee (IIRC) to take into account in its activities and recommendations on integrated reporting during 2011.
