The Inaugural CHASS National Forum, "The Human Dimension: HASS Disciplines in Australian Lives" aims to highlight excellence and innovation in the knowledge areas that focus on the human experience, such as the humanities, arts and the social sciences. CHASS believes that now, more than ever, it is critical to support and invest in knowledge that places the human experience at the centre of its focus. We invite you to be part of this forward looking focus on "The Human Dimension" of knowledge by supporting this landmark event that will celebrate excellence and leadership in Australian society in an era of change.
