The 2021 AFAANZ Virtual Conference
The week starting on 5 July
AFAANZ supports a number of activities each year, two of our most important events are our annual conference and doctoral symposium.
Call for Papers
The 2021 AFAANZ Conference organised by the Accounting & Finance Association of Australia and New Zealand (AFAANZ) will be held online in the week starting on 5 July 2021.
AFAANZ is devoted to a very broad spectrum of accounting and finance research and we welcome innovative research approaches as well as those that are well established. Papers are invited in the broad areas of accounting, finance, auditing, corporate governance, accounting information systems, accounting education, ethics, corporate social responsibility, tax and related fields. All papers will be subject to blind peer review. AFAANZ encourages new and developing researchers to attend the conference.

The two plenary speakers at the conference will be:
- Gary Monroe, Professor of Accounting, University of New South Wales
