    Cambridge Forum on Corporate Climate Governance

    Call for Abstracts

    The State of Corporate Climate Governance Around the World

    Cambridge Forum on Corporate Climate Governance explores how corporate actions to address climate change can contribute to a sustainable future. It examines the governance and decision-making processes, as well as the legal, regulatory, and financial frameworks needed to support these efforts.

    The journal supports the growth of academic and practitioner research in this area and aims to push forward the global corporate climate agenda by using peer-reviewed research to better inform, engage and influence individuals working in or advising publicly listed companies, private enterprises, family-owned businesses, state-owned enterprises and other corporate entities. It seeks to publish applied academic articles alongside contributions from non-academic experts, practitioners and policymakers as well as contributions jointly authored by academics and their counterparts in business, finance and the legal and accounting professions.

    A themed issue format will be used to bring together research from the many disciplines that are fundamental to understanding corporations and corporate governance, including business, law, finance and more. This is a journal for academics, legal and financial advisers, corporate executives, board members, shareholders, regulators, investors, policymakers and all individuals critical to supporting and scaling climate action within businesses and across key industry sectors and value chains. To foster meaningful dialogue between academic and non-academic experts, the journal prioritises clear, accessible language in all its published contributions.

    Cambridge Forum on Corporate Climate Governance is part of the Cambridge Forum journal series, which progresses cross-disciplinary conversations on issues of global importance.
