The International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) published a literature review titled ‘Educating Accountants for a Sustainable Future: A Literature Review of Competencies, Educational Strategies, and Challenges for Sustainability Reporting and Assurance’ that provides insights on how stakeholder demands for relevant and reliable sustainability reporting can be met.

The literature review identifies the skills required of professional accountants to provide services, educational strategies to develop these skills and educational challenges. The literature review also informed IFAC’s decision to make sustainability-related revisions to the International Education Standards, which are expected in Q2 2024.
