The Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) is inviting researchers to submit proposals for innovative and thought-provoking studies that will challenge the status quo and meet the demands of a rapidly evolving reporting landscape.  The AASB is interested in research that has the potential to inform future standard-setting activities or contribute to the broader dialogue on financial and non-financial reporting. Successful proposals must demonstrate a clear methodology, potential impact on reporting practices, and relevance to stakeholders.
