This workshop will bring together scholars and students in law, environmental management and engineering, political science, and economics to discuss what sustainability means and implies for taxation.
Participants will discuss the broad idea of sustainability and its connection to consumer and investor behaviour; sustainability at the level of the firm, the society, the state, and the international community; the idea of triple bottom line accounting and the role of tax sustainability in CSR practices and ESG-certified investing; emerging ideas about sustainability in terms of taxpayer buy-in and administrability; and legal and institutional proposals to increase sustainability in taxation.
