CSEAR
The Centre for Social and Environmental Accounting Research (CSEAR) has held annual congresses in the UK (formerly referred to as the Summer School) for over three decades now, and in other regions of the world such as Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Asia, and South and North America.

2nd CSEAR Africa Conference (December 3-4, 2026)
Similar to other CSEAR conferences, the 2nd CSEAR Africa Conference will be a deliberately informal gathering and discussion forum for researchers, teachers, students and practitioners concerned with social and environmental accounting, teaching and research in the very widest sense. Its emphasis is on a high level of interaction, discussion and debate in a friendly, supportive and relaxed atmosphere.

Attendees will include academics, practitioners and PhD students at all levels of experience, and involved with all aspects of social, environmental, sustainability theory and practice in accounting and other disciplines. The main objective of this conference is to provide a forum for discussions to enhance research in policies and strategies relating to the sustainability agenda for Africa.

Emerging Scholars Colloquium (December 2, 2026)
The 2nd CSEAR Africa Conference will be preceded by an Emerging Scholars Colloquium. The Colloquium aims at introducing emerging scholars into the social and environmental accounting research community and providing them an opportunity to present and discuss their research projects alongside a cohort of distinguished international faculty. We strongly recommend for PhD students (and early career researchers) to submit their papers to the Colloquium
