#HistoryWeek 2021 event registrations are now open
First launched in 1997 by the History Council of NSW, and now in its 24th year, History Week 2021 will be staged from 4 to 12 September 2021. For History Week 2021 we ask our members to reflect on a period of tumult, and answer the question: “What kind of histories do we most need in our world today to heal the past and usher in fresh hope and possibility for the future?”
Submissions close on Monday, 16 August at 5 pm.
Further details and the online submission form can be found on the webpage.
