This abstract investigates the multiple significance of society involvement while reading environmental audits. To begin, societal scrutiny serves as a powerful force for accountability, ensuring that stakeholders are held accountable for environmental deterioration. Concurrently, by looking into audit reports, society obtains essential insights into environmental concerns, cultivating a collective awareness of sustainable practices. Furthermore, societal engagement acts as a catalyst for lobbying, accelerating calls for legislative reform and corporate responsibility. The distribution of audit findings educates the public, promoting informed decision-making and increasing environmental literacy. Also, societal participation in audit processes encourages openness and inclusivity, raising the voices of communities affected by environmental degradation. Thus, society's active participation in reading environmental audits is critical for designing a sustainable future by promoting accountability, advocacy, awareness, education, and inclusive environmental governance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5593\/sgem2024\/5.1\/s21.84","type":"proceedings-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,4]],"date-time":"2024-12-04T12:27:54Z","timestamp":1733315274000},"page":"685-692","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["THE ROLE OF SOCIETY IN ENVIRONMENTAL AUDITING"],"prefix":"10.5593","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Nikolay","family":"Katsarski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski","place":["Bulgaria"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3602","reference":[{"key":"ref=1","unstructured":"[1] F.
