The 2020 Accounting and Accountability in Emerging Economies (AAEE) Conference aims to engage with scholars interested in generating ideas on how accounting and accountability debates might play a greater role in the economic and social development.

 

Important Update 

Dear Colleagues,

As the coronavirus crisis deepens, we have increasingly felt that it would be difficult to proceed with the AAEE Conference 2020 (and the Emerging Scholars Colloquium).

As Public Health England has indicated it might take six months before the UK "returns to normal". Given this, it has become clear to us that this year's conference will have to be postponed, The exact dates and schedule will be published in due course.

If you had already received an acceptance, this will continue to be valid if you wish to present the same paper next year. Otherwise, the system will be open for you to change the paper or submit a new paper.

If you are currently reviewing a paper, there is no need to continue to review now. We will need your expertise next year.

We wish you all the best and please stay safe in these difficult times.

Sincerely,

Professor Shahzad Uddin

Organising Committee, AAEE2020
