About the AHA

 

The AHA was founded in 1973 and is the premier national organisation of historians - academic, professional and other - working in all fields of history. Its members number more than 800, including universities, libraries and other affiliates. AHA conferences are held annually and a number of prizes, awards and honorary fellowships are offered. The Executive Committee of the AHA draws its members from all over the country, while its Secretariat is currently supported by La Trobe University.

Through this website, the Australian Historical Association offers a dynamic flow of information and commentary to its  members and the public. This complements the exciting directions taken in the online version of the AHA's refereed journal, History Australia, published by Monash University Publishing. In addition, this website has an online registration facility for membership; just go to the Membership page.

The AHA is a rapidly growing institution and membership brings many benefits. These include automatic print and online subscription to History Australia,which is produced three times/year; access to the AHA email network; and rights to present at AHA conferences and to discounted registrations. We trust you find that your membership helps to keep you in touch with the Australian history community.
