Prove, Improve, Account New Guide to Social Accounting and Audit
About Social Accounting and Audit...
Social accounting and audit is a logical and flexible framework that will enable your organisation to build on existing documentation and reporting systems and develop a process whereby you can:
- account fully for your organisation's social, environmental and economic performance and impact;
- report on that performance and impact;
- provide the information essential for planning future action and improving performance; and
- be accountable to all those you work with and work for...
Through social accounting and audit you will understand the impact your organisation has on its community and its beneficiaries and be able to build in accountability by engaging with your organisation's key stakeholders.
About this Guide...
The New Guide is based on the Social Accounting and Audit Manual (plus CD) published in 2005 by the Social Audit Network.
This new Guide takes account of the growing experience of social accounting and audit in recent years and includes reference to the range of frameworks and methods developed to help organisations explain and account for their performance and impact. It is a "roadmap" to the social accounting and audit process and has been written for social enterprises, social economy organisations and voluntary sector organisations that wish to regularly account and report on their social, economic and environmental performance and impact.
