The conference is being organised by the Charity Law Association of Australia and New Zealand (CLAANZ), Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CAANZ) and Parry Field (among others). Charities Services is also supporting this event.
The conference will focus on current topics of interest in fields of charity law and accounting.
The aims of the conference are to:
• inform and educate on important topics for charities
• strengthen links, contacts and collaboration within the sector community; and
• share lessons learnt and best practice that have worked for others, both within New Zealand and beyond.
We will report back on how it went!
