Our Vision
The History Council of NSW aims to ensure that history, in all its diverse forms, is an important part of the cultural life of the people and communities of NSW.
We provide services and programs, which aim to build capacity within the history sector and showcase the importance of history.
We focus on five key areas: awareness, diversity, excellence, advocacy and outreach.
Our objectives are to:
- provide a forum for identifying and responding to issues of relevance to the practice of history
- support history’s role in informing and shaping public debate, policy and future planning
- recognise the diversity of historical perspectives, including those of Indigenous peoples, and encourage excellence in historical practice
- facilitate communication within the history community and provide opportunities for collaboration
- provide professional development activities and opportunities for our members and audiences across NSW.
