CALL FOR RESEARCH PROPOSALS AND PARTICIPATION
IAAER ACCA Central and Eastern European
Emerging Accounting Scholars Research Workshop
June 07-08, 2021
Immediately Preceding AMIS 2021,
Hosted by the Bucharest University of Economic Studies,
Funding Provided by ACCA Global
The International Association for Accounting Education and Research (IAAER) and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) will hold their Central and Eastern European Emerging Accounting Scholars Research Workshop in Bucharest, Romania on June 07-08, 2021. The workshop will be held in conjunction with the AMIS 2021 International Conference organized by the Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania. The objectives of the workshop are to provide emerging scholars from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) with feedback on their research and to help develop their research skills. Representatives of IAAER will select the research projects to be presented during the workshop and will attend the workshop to provide comprehensive feedback and guidance to the participants. Preference will be given to doctoral students and early career researchers. However, the workshop is open to all emerging accounting scholars holding or pursuing a terminal degree that are affiliated with higher education institutions in CEE countries and are committed to improving their research skills capacity.
Pending fulfillment of all the health and legislation requirements, the workshop will be offered in a hybrid format, e.g., in-person with a virtual option. If an in-person format is feasible, the workshop will be at Bucharest University of Economic Studies on Monday June 7 and Tuesday June 8, 2021, in the afternoon Eastern European Time (GMT+2), to accommodate diverse time zones. A decision about the format will be announced in due course. CEE accounting scholars are invited to submit research proposals (i.e., paper ideas or research projects in the pilot testing phase) to be considered for presentation at the workshop. Up to 15 proposals will be selected for presentation, on two tracks (emerging and experienced). Following each presentation, IAAER mentors/faculty will provide guidance on ways to increase the quality of the research and its publication potential.
