Indigenous Accountants Australia is a joint initiative of CPA Australia and the Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand. Indigenous Australians make up 2% of the Australian population, but this is not reflected in the accounting profession. We set up Indigenous Accountants Australia to try and help address this. Our aim is to attract more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people into the accounting profession, by working with students, universities and employers. By helping Indigenous Australians gain a rewarding and financially secure career, we believe the initiative will bring significant benefits to Indigenous communities, local businesses and the broader economy.
