About the researcher
Akbar joined University of Sheffield as a PhD student in accounting in October 2024. Companies express their contributions to the environmental and biodiversity issues, yet the environmental and biodiversity degradation remains ongoing. Drawing on such conditions, he attempts to critically investigate the greenwashing phenomenon in Indonesia through an accountability lens. Hosting for endemic flora and fauna, Indonesia encounters environmental and biodiversity deterioration. His case study research follows the tradition of critical accounting studies. The expected findings of his research can suggest to the deliberation of broader stakeholders in sustainability issues and contextualisation of sustainability framework or standards development.
He is a lecturer in the accounting department at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Indonesia. His research interests include Islamic accounting, Islamic alms (zakat, infaq, shodaqoh), accounting information systems, management accounting, and sustainability. He has published an article in Journal of Islamic Monetary Economics and Finance and a book about ethical cases in Indonesia state-owned enterprises. Besides academics, he involves in several practical experiences associated with Islamic alms, energy, and management accounting.
His doctoral study is funded by the Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education (LPDP). He is also a scholar in the Grantham Centre for Sustainable Futures.
