Internship in integrated Reporting, Accountability and Transport Industry

Urban and inter-urban community passenger transport is becoming a more sustainable form of mobility than private/individual transport. The goal for governments is therefore to facilitate a transition from reliance on private transport to community passenger transport. But to ensure that this is the most accessible, equitable, sustainable and environmentally and community responsible solution, it is important to have the judgement tools to analyse the social, environmental and economic impact of these enterprises.
The project seeks to obtain transparency tools to improve the efficiency, good governance, reputation and legitimacy of urban and interurban transport service companies. To this end, its objectives are, on the one hand, the development of a guide adapted to the sector for the disclosure of information according to the Integrated Reporting information framework, and on the other hand, to analyse the level of efficiency of these companies as a whole.
To achieve the first objective, we will analyse the information disclosed by companies in the transport sector to determine their level of disclosure. On the other hand, we will establish a map of the stakeholders of these companies in order to find out their information needs. We will then draw up a guide with the information indicators that these companies should disclose. Through interviews with both stakeholders and managers, we will validate this guide with the intention of making it truly useful and relevant for this sector.
In relation to the second objective, the financial information of the transport companies will be obtained in order to be able to analyse, by applying different approaches, the levels of efficiency achieved.
