SAHA Global Conversations - DASSH

For our first SAHA Global Conversation we welcome the immediate past President of the Australasian Council of Deans of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (DASSH), Professor Catharine Coleborne. Professor Coleborne is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences in Australia and is a historian of mental health and institutions. From 2015 to 2022, she led and managed a large and highly diverse group of academics in humanities and social science and spearheaded the implementation of the new School of Humanities, Creative Industries and Social Sciences at the University of Newcastle. Her higher education leadership experiences include curriculum renewal and design; management of higher degree research students and administration; as Chair of the university-wide Educator Network (University of Newcastle), and sector-wide representation (Marsden Fund, Royal Society of New Zealand) and Excellence in Research Australia (Australian Research Council). As President of DASSH she has forged an increasingly positive public engagement for arts, humanities and social sciences since 2020.
