The current global economic situation, including in Indonesia, is in a worrying phase. The global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly impacted economic prospects and public economic activity. Several institutions have even predicted a global economic slowdown, such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which projects global economic growth of minus 3%.

The global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has created uncertainty that can significantly impact accountants' judgments when preparing financial statements. Accountants can help resolve accounting issues arising from economic challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

In response to this situation, the role of accounting is also needed to address existing economic challenges. Therefore, the Accounting Department Student Association, Faculty of Economics and Business, Diponegoro University (HMDA FEB Undip) held an accounting competition called DASH "Diponegoro Accounting Harmony" 2020, themed "The Role of Accounting in Facing Economic Challenges." DASH is expected to contribute to improving the competence of accounting resources in Indonesia.
