Overview

About Australian Academy of the Humanities

We are the national body for the Humanities in Australia, championing the contribution that humanities, arts and culture make to national life. Operating from the land of the Ngunnawal people.

The Academy was established by Royal Charter in 1969, and is one of Australia’s four Learned Academies.

We are an independent, not-for-profit organisation with a Fellowship of over 600 leaders and experts in culture, history, languages, linguistics, philosophy and ethics, archaeology and heritage.

We provide independent and authoritative advice, including to government, to ensure ethical, historical and cultural perspectives inform discussions regarding Australia’s future challenges and opportunities. We also promote and recognise excellence in the humanities disciplines. The Academy plays a unique role in promoting international engagement and research collaboration and investing in the next generation of humanities researchers.
