PHA NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2023
OTHER HISTORIES, OTHER AUDIENCES

16-17 September 2023 | Adelaide, South Australia

On 16 and 17 September 2023, PHA members from around Australia convened in Adelaide, South Australia, for the national conference.

The theme of the conference is OTHER HISTORIES: OTHER AUDIENCES. The conference showcased the diversity of work undertaken by professional historians and explored challenges confronting them as they work on contracts with clients and in areas beyond the academy. Our work frequently extends from the concept stage through to production in a variety of formats.

The 2023 conference was organised by PHA (SA), who selected a range of papers, lightning talks, and panel discussions on the conference theme. The organisers offered workshops on the Friday prior to the conference for early attendees and provided a tour after the conference. There was an informal dinner on the Friday evening and a formal conference dinner with guest speaker Dr Kiera Lindsey on the Saturday evening.

PHA (SA) also offered an online stream throughout the conference for those who were unable to attend in person.
