Call for Submissions

The Government and Nonprofit (GNP) Section Midyear Meeting will be held March 11-12, 2016 at the Westin Crystal City in Arlington, VA. The meeting will provide participants with an opportunity to showcase their research and participate in the discussion of others’ research in concurrent sessions, to hear from leading professionals regarding contemporary developments in GNP topics, and to collaborate with GNP colleagues.

We welcome theoretical, practical, pedagogical and case-study papers on any government or nonprofit accounting research topic. We encourage the submission of completed studies, as well as emerging studies. Papers not accepted for concurrent sessions will be considered for the research roundtable. Papers accepted for concurrent sessions will be considered for the best paper award. Please submit your work by the deadline of 11:59 pm EST on Saturday December 5, 2015.

Submitting authors and co-authors will be asked to volunteer to serve as reviewers of submissions, as well as moderators and/or discussants at the meeting.
