Abstract
The Centre for Social and Environmental Accounting Research (CSEAR) network is an international community of academics and practitioners engaging in social and environmental accounting scholarship. CSEAR has developed from a small number of UK-based researchers in 1991 to an international network of 246 members today from academia and practice. In 2012, the CSEAR Council initiated a review of CSEAR activities in an effort to discuss and develop future plans for the Centre based in St Andrews, Scotland, and activities across the world.This article describes the activities associated with two plenary sessions focused on discussing (1) the Future of the Field and (2) the Future of CSEAR, which were undertaken during the 25th CSEAR International Congress on Social & Environmental Accounting Research at St Andrews, held in September 2013. These activities aimed to create a space for Congress delegates to celebrate achievements, discuss challenges and imagine possibilities for the Network and the field of social and environmental accounting. The Futures sessions resulted in the endorsement of a Vision, Mission, Values Statement for CSEAR and are continuing to inform the plans by CSEAR Council and the broader CSEAR community to ‘raise our collective game’ in order to mobilise accounting scholarship to enable a more sustainable society.
