CIGAR Newsletter January 2017

In the Editorial, Francesca Manes Rossi and Sandra Cohen give an interesting update on integrated reporting. They explain that integrated reporting is a result of integrated thinking within an organization. This means that some changes should occur in the way in which strategies are designed and translated into actions, basically involving all the different areas in the value creation process. The authors call for participation in the debate on integrated reporting by public sector accounting scholars.

On page 2, the project DiEPSAm (Developing and implementing European Public Sector Accounting modules) is introduced. This project is a cooperation between five European universities and aims to develop an academic course for Bachelor's or Master's degree programs that concentrates on European Public Sector Accounting.

Conferences and related calls for papers are announced on page 3. Information is given about:

- the 9th Accounting History International Conference (Verona, Italy, 6-8 September 2017);
- the 5th biennial international conference of the Global Accounting and Organizational Change (GAOC) Research network (Melbourne, 26-28 November 2017);
