An industry benefits when open channels of communication exist between industry practitioners and the academics studying the industry.
SRI-CONNECT wishes to encourage this by:
- Giving senior academics a window on the world of SRI in practice and by
- Raising the awareness of industry practitioners of the academic research written about their work
- Ensuring that both can contact each other easily
To support this, SRI-CONNECT:
- CONTENT: Curates (within Market Buzz) this library of recent academic research on SRI & corporate governance
- COMMUNITY: Maintains this list of academics registered with SRI-CONNECT.
- CONTACT: Also this list of other influential academics who are working on different aspects of sustainability and responsible investment (see below)
- CONTACT: Has launched a discussion group: Academic research to facilitate contact between academics and practitioners
- Has established some rules of engagement for academics that we hope will guide and ensure constructive contact between the two groups
- Notably, registration with SRI-CONNECT is limited to post-doctoral academics
Please do contact Mike Tyrrell if you have suggestions about how SRI-CONNECT might usefully support a constructive dynamic between academics and practitioners.
(Note: We focus our scope of interest on academics and research that is directly interested in SRI & corporate governance within listed equities, fixed income, private equity, venture capital, infrastructure or, at pinch, real estate investment. It would be counter-productive to include academics with wider interests in sustainable development or even sustainable finance more broadly).
