APCEA Charter
The aims of APCEA, as set out in its Charter developed at the Environmental Accountability Symposium held in Canberra, Australia in 1996, are:
- The development of undergraduate and postgraduate programs in environmental accountability involving participation of members.
- Cooperation in research and teaching.
- Joint funding applications for the support of collaborative research projects and infrastructure needs through appropriate bodies.
- Provision of environmental accountability advice and the making of submissions to government agencies and other appropriate bodies.
- The promotion of environmental accountability matters to professional accountancy and finance bodies.
- Collaboration on consultancies to government agencies and other appropriate bodies.
- The organization of seminars, workshops, and a biennial symposium, responsibility for the latter to be rotated between the branches of APCEA.
- The production of publications.
Each Branch of APCEA has signed a Letter of Agreement that it will pursue these aims.
