The Australian Council of Professional Historians Associations
(ACPHA) was officially launched in 1996 to represent professional
historians at the national level in Australia. ACPHA also seeks to develop
dialogues with government bodies and other institutions and agencies which
are involved in the areas of history, culture and heritage. The aims of
the Council are:
- to
increase potential clients' and employers' awareness of both the skills
of professional historians and the appropriate conditions for their
employment;
- to
maintain and encourage adherence to professional standards and ethics
among historians;
- to
encourage mutual support and co-operation among professional historians;
and,
- to
provide a forum for critical discussion of historical
scholarship.
