Inaugural

Accounting Forum Conference 2024

University of South Australia

11-13 December

In line with Accounting Forum’s vision, the theme of this inaugural conference is to bring together researchers in accounting and related areas from varying viewpoints, approaches and paradigms; provide a forum for ways we might bridge the gaps in our understanding; and broaden the scope of discussions beyond our own research groups. As such, papers addressing any interesting accounting-related research question, using appropriate research methodologies and research paradigms, are welcomed. Innovative approaches are encouraged.

Special Track

Accounting Forum will have a Special Issue of the journal associated with the conference.  To facilitate this, there will be a Special Track at the conference on the theme:

"Developing and Measuring the ‘S’ (Social)"

The purpose of the special track is to help authors in developing their papers for submission to the Special Issue.
