Abstract: This editorial explores the idea of ‘place’ as an active educator in accounting education, emphasizing the role of diverse metropolitan locations in shaping student learning. Through the Sustainable Futures Hackathon - Hacking Place in Accounting, global accounting educators engaged with six unique case sites to collaboratively develop learning materials that integrate accounting with local contexts. Findings highlight that place-based education is a student-centered approach that fosters authentic learning, promotes autonomy, and connects academic concepts with practical applications in real-world settings.
