The Asian Studies Association of Australia is the peak body of university experts and educators on Asian Studies in Australia. The Oriental Society of Australia, founded in 1956, was Sydney-focused although in principle national in membership, and initiatives to make it more national in scope were explored without success. Consequently, after an exploratory meeting of the 'Asian Scholars of Australia and New Zealand' during the International Congress of Orientalists in Canberra in 1971, the ASAA was established at a meeting held in Canberra during the ANZAAS Conference in January 1975 and adopted a constitution at its first National Conference in May 1976. Membership is primarily drawn from the university sector and includes academics and students engaged in teaching or research on Asia across a wide range of disciplines, including language teaching.
