AusSTS is a community for STS scholars across Australasia.
The network hosts regular events, including an annual conference designed to bring together the Australasian STS community, support postgraduate and early career scholars, and to reflect on the nuances of situated knowledge-making. Established in 2017, the aim of the network is to serve as an intellectual and collegial home for STS researchers in the region. The expertise of our members span across the humanities, social sciences, and sciences including Indigenous studies, anthropology, sociology, media studies, queer and gender studies, history and philosophy of science, public health, law, artistic and creative practice, activism, and more.
AusSTS has local nodes across Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, Darwin, and Wellington.
