    Dear all,

     

    We hope that you and your family are healthy and safe. This is just a quick reminder of the upcoming submission deadline on May 15, 2021 for the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) Academic Network Week 2021. Following last year's successful conference, we will hold it as a 5-day virtual event on September 13-17, 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, political science, sociology, and other subjects in the social and natural sciences.

     

    Please find further details in the Call for Papers. We encourage you to submit your work, and look forward to receiving your submission by May 15, 2021.

     

    Take care,

    The PRI Academic Network Conference Committee 2021
