The Australian Women’s and Gender Studies Association (AWGSA) is the peak body representing researchers, academics and students of Women’s Studies and Gender Studies in Australia. The objectives of the organisation are:
- To promote the teaching, study, and research of women’s and gender studies in Australia.
- To be a national voice on women’s and gender studies issues.
- To promote links with other international feminist organisations and associations.
AWGSA is involved in a range of activities each year. We sponsor feminist scholarly and activist events and make submissions to both Governments and Universities supporting women’s access and opportunities and feminist pedagogy. A key activity of the organisation is the AWGSA Biennial International Conference; these conferences are hosted by women’s and gender studies departments and centres across Australia.

The Australian Lesbian and Gay Archives is the biggest repository of historical materials about LGBTIQ experience in Australia. The Archives was established in 1978. It is a volunteer, community-based organisation.
The collections include material of national or international scope, but the heart of the Archives’ work is the collection and preservation of the historical life of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender communities of Australia.
The Archives preserves these materials and makes them accessible to students, historians, and anyone else who is interested.
In 2018 ALGA celebrates its 40th anniversary and the conference is part of its anniversary celebrations marking four decades of collecting and preserving Australian queer history.
