  Policy & Advocacy Committee

 

 

Policy and Advocacy Committee

The Policy & Advocacy Committee consists of members of the ASSA Fellowship: a Chairperson and seven members, including the Workshop Committee Chair and Research Committee Chair, given the close relationship between Policy & Advocacy outcomes and the Workshop and Research programs. Policy outcomes are also encouraged by the Editor (pegsbooks@optusnet.com.au) in the Academy journal Dialogue.

The Committee structure reflects the close working relationship between the Policy and Advocacy, Workshop and Research Committees and provides, at every possible opportunity, useful positive recommendations and supporting arguments.
