A Vision for Diversity

Diversity is the broad inclusion and active engagement of multiple perspectives, experiences, and ideas in accounting education, research,and practice. A dynamic educational and professional environment values and encourages contributions from divergent sectors and philosophical perspectives.

Accounting education, research, and practice that is free of bias and conformity generates knowledge and innovation that enriches learning and fosters societal advancement and beneficial change. Advancement and change depend upon an inclusive view of intellectual capacity,human development, and research direction

ANOTHER SPECIAL DIVERSITY SECTION WORKSHOP

Issues in Accounting Education has distributed a call for papers related to Diversity, Equity, and Social Justice in Accounting Education. The AAA Diversity Section is supporting our members in developing papers for submission to this special issue by hosting a workshop for authors to present their work and receive feedback. The workshop will be held virtually via Zoom on Wednesday, July 14, 4:00 PM Eastern/3:00 PM Central. (The reason for the late start time is that three of the guest editors attending the workshop are located in Australia. They will join us at 6:00 AM!)

We are inviting all members of the Diversity Section to read these paper proposals, attend this workshop, and share comments, questions, and other feedback with the authors to enrich their papers. If you would like to attend the workshop, please register here: https://aaahq-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAlduGhqTMjGNytcA-Q51q_YBMpvGE28zN5. We will distribute the paper proposals and the Zoom link for the workshop to all registrants on Wednesday, July 7.

Letter from the President

Norma Montague
2020-2021 Section President

Greetings!

My name is Norma Ramirez Montague, and I am honored to assume the role of the Diversity Section President for 2020-2021. As you well know, the Diversity Section's longstanding goals encompass the creation and dissemination of knowledge as it relates to diversity and inclusion in the accounting and accounting education fields via the promotion of excellence in research, teaching, and practice. As thought leaders in diversity and inclusion, we should strive to achieve those goals in new and innovative ways. In that spirit, I would like to announce the launch of a new two-year initiative for the Diversity Section to build upon our predecessors' tremendous efforts.
