Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
環境管理会計手法の更なる発展は企業がサステナビリティ経営を促進する上で重要で、本研究では企業事例をもとにMFCAを基礎とした環境管理会計手法を開発し発展させることは学術的研究や、サステナビリティ社会の実現をする上でも非常に重要である。本研究成果では学会賞を受賞する英語論文を研究成果として出版することができ、日本の国内のみならず海外にも本研究成果が共有、発信できることとなったことは、学術的にも社会的にも意義深い。 カーボンニュートラルや非財務情報の重要性が世界で急激に増すなかで、MFCA情報は非財務情報と財務情報の両面でのマネジメント情報を提供することから、今後の更なる研究発展が期待される。
