A mixed year for ISAA events, the highlight being the first in-person National Conference in September with an energising and informative Annual Lecture by Cathy McGowan AO. Online discussions were lively and challenging but some face-to-face events had to be cancelled through lack of response. The national committee, together with state groups, are planning an exciting calendar for 2023, for example Dr Bob Davidson is to present a work-in-progress on 6 February 2023 at the State Library of NSW, on the topical theme of marketisation of human services.
