Ethics in Accounting

For example, topics such as Australasian business practice and education, the place of the employee, the questions of sustainability and of responsible accounting, as well as the place of human rights in the workplace, are encouraged. We are however open to any novel topic in this field, hence we are prepared to create an Open Stream.  

Please send a 500-word abstract, as an email attachment, to 'ABEN Conference 2014' at business.aben2014@sydney.edu.au by 31 July 2014. Full papers may also be submitted, to be peer reviewed, if required by your funding institution.

Registration for the conference is $A300 (registering before 30 September) and $A380 (registering after 30 September) for salaried persons; and $A200 (before 30 September) and $A280 (after 30 September) for those who are non-salaried. We are currently finalising the 2014 ABEN conference website. Any questions please email business.aben2014@sydney.edu.au.

Also, this year at ABEN we are planning a dedicated workshop for PhD students. In this session PhD participants will have an opportunity to meet with senior scholars, discuss their research and ask questions related to issues beyond their dissertation (such as managing the supervisory relationship, how to find and work with co-authors, understanding reviewing and publishing processes). The workshop will also provide the students an opportunity to meet with other students undertaking research in the field of Business Ethics. Pre-registration for this workshop is required (on or before September 30) as the number of participants will be limited. Please contact michelle.greenwood@monash.edu with any queries or to register for the workshop.
