Welcome to the GSAA website / Herzlich willkommen auf der GSAA-Webseite!

In November 2016 at the biannual conference of the German Studies Association of Australia, held at the Australian National University in Australia’s capital Canberra, members elected a new Executive, including a new President. Details of the new members can be found under the link to the Executive Committee.

Many thanks to the outgoing President and members of the old Executive. Our thanks also go to the organisers of the conference, Dr. Gabriele Schmidt and Dr. Katie Sutton, who ran a wonderful conference.

I am delighted to take over the role of President of the GSAA, and I look forward to working with members on our next conference and other issues.

LATEST NEWS! The GSAA is going abroad! We are pleased to announce that our next conference will be the first ever to take place outside Australia. The conference will be held on 28-30 November 2018 in Wellington, the beautiful harbour capital of New Zealand, and will be hosted by Victoria University of Wellington. The local host will be Dr. Richard Millington. Details about the theme and keynote speakers will follow in the coming months.

Cheers / Herzliche Grüße,

Alison Lewis

President
