    Dear all,

     

    I am happy to share with you the Call for Papers for the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) Academic Network Conference 2021.

     

    PRI, a United Nations-supported initiative, aims to understand the investment implications of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors, and support its international network of investor signatories in incorporating these factors into their investment and ownership decisions.

     

    The PRI Academic Network is a vibrant and flourishing international community of over 4,000 academics and investment practitioners on ESG and investment. It comprises academics from various disciplines, spanning accounting, economics, finance, law, management, sociology, and other subjects in the social and natural sciences.

     

    Given the current global pandemic, we allow for some flexibility in the planning of the conference:

    1. Health situation permitting, the PRI Academic Network Conference will be held in person on Monday September 13, 2021 in Tokyo (alongside PRI in Person – the largest global conference on responsible investment).
    2. If the health situation does not permit traveling and group gatherings, the conference will be converted into a 5-day virtual event on September 13-17, 2021 (following last year's successful format).

     

    Please find further details in the attached call for paper. I encourage you to submit your work, and look forward to receiving your submission by May 1, 2021.

     

    Best,

    Caroline
