The Australian, Canadian, and New Zealand Studies Network (ACNZSN) was created and managed by good friend of AuSI Dr. Jatinder Mann (Assistant Professor, Department of History, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong SAR).

It aims to bring together scholars working in the three fields of Australian, Canadian, and Aotearoa New Zealand Studies. AuSI is proud to support ACNZSN.

Below are two great opportunities initiated by ACNZSN:
