28TH ANNUAL ETHICS RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM Call for Papers

Date Extended to 2/15/2024

In conjunction with the Public Interest Section, colleagues across the AAA who are engaged and interested in research and teaching related to Ethics are invited to submit papers, cases, and panel session proposals for presentation at the 28th Annual Ethics Research Symposium. The Symposium will be held in person in Washington, DC on Sunday, August 11th before the 2024 AAA Annual Meeting.

The Symposium is a full day event including both breakfast and the annual Accounting Exemplar award lunch.  You do not need to register for the annual meeting to register for the Symposium.  However, you do need to be an AAA member to register.

The themes of this year’s Symposium include Accounting Regulation and CSR. We encourage a diverse set of research including, but not limited to, the following: accountability, AI and ethics in accounting, codes of conduct, compliance, corporate governance, DEI, ESG, fraud, and whistleblowing. To that end we are thrilled to announce that our keynote speaker for the event will be the newest PCAOB board member, George Botic.  His bio can be found here: https://pcaobus.org/about/the-board/board-bios/george-r-botic

As in previous years, we will have multiple concurrent research sessions throughout the morning and afternoon on a wide variety of topics, including a panel of editors on how to get your ethics research published. The Symposium will conclude with a panel organized and moderated by Steve Mintz. We are in the process of selecting panelists and are thrilled to announce that Cynthia Cooper has agreed to participate in this panel session.

We also want to inform you of two awards that will be given out at the luncheon: Accounting Exemplar Award and Excellence in Accounting Ethics Education Award. The deadline to apply is March 1. Additional details are provided on the AAA website link to the Public Interest Section.

The deadline to submit papers has been extended to February 15. We hope you can join us and look forward to learning about your research. 

Thanks, and questions can be sent to the Ethics Research Symposium Co-Chairs:
