ASTSS has established several Special Interest Groups (SIGs) to facilitate communication and collaboration between ASTSS members working in similar areas. They are also intended to provide a vehicle for the organisation of the annual conferences.
Current SIGs are focused on:
Forced Migration
-
- Co-Conveners: Ruth Wells (ruth.wells@unsw.edu.au) & Max Loomes (max.loomes@hotmail.com)
Allied Health
-
- Co-Conveners: Grace McKeon (g.mckeon@unsw.edu.au) & Chiara Mastrogiovanni (info@astss.org.au)
The aims of ASTSS’ SIGs are to:
- Encourage and enable collaboration between academics and practitioners in the fields related to SIG topics,
- Encourage submission of papers to ASTSS Biennial conferences
- Promote opportunities for members to engage in regional events (hosted by ASTSS or like-minded partners)
- Encourage and support postgraduate research in the fields related to SIG topics.

We are also seeking applications to establish additional ASTSS Special Interest Groups. For information about establishing an ASTSS Special Interest Groups contact info@astss.org.au
