TASA_History.jpg
DOCUMENTS_AND_POLOCIES.png
TASA’s Executive Committee (EC) governs the Association and manages its daily business as outlined in the Constitution and by established policies. A call for nominations for the 2027 – 2028 Executive term will be disseminated on July 1, 2026.

The November 2024 - November 2026 Executive Team can be viewed on TASAweb here.
TASA was officially established under the name of the Sociological Association of Australia and New Zealand (SAANZ) in 1963, crystallising what was a long, and perhaps delayed process of the discipline’s development in Australia.

For the 50th anniversary celebrations in 2013, pages on TASA's history were added to TASAweb. 
You can access details of TASA's current Executive Committee 2023 - 2024, and their respective portfolios, as well as documents and policies, including theConstitution, Values Statement, Statement on Academic Freedom, Code of Conduct, Grievance Procedures,  Safe & Inclusive Events, Sustainable Events and TASA History.
