(New York, New York, June 28, 2023)
In preparation for its 4th Research Forum, which will be co-hosted by Comparative International Governmental Accounting Research Network (CIGAR) at its June 2024 conference, the IPSASB is calling for scholarly contributions from the academic community. This is an opportunity for researchers to have a significant impact on accounting standards used by governments and public sector entities across the globe.
Coordinated through the Academic Advisory Group, which includes independent scholars from all parts of the world, as well as the IPSASB members who have an academic background, the IPSASB is offering a grant of USD $2,000 for selected scholarly papers submitted covering three research areas. Up to six grants are available in total [one of the Research Area 2 grants will be funded by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA)].
The research areas of interest are:
Research Area 1: Research on Practical IPSAS Implementation Challenges
Research Area 2: Sustainability Reporting Focused Research
Research Area 3: Research on Adoption and Implementation of Specific IPSAS
The grant recipients, as well as other scholars, will present the first drafts of their full papers at the 2024 Research Forum (June 2024). As a first step, academics are invited to submit abstracts by September 1, 2023. For more information, see the IPSASB’s Call for Papers
