The FRSA Board has made the difficult decision to postpone the June 2021 National Conference to May 2022 (dates TBC). This is due to the continuing impacts of COVID-19.

The Conference in 2022 will still be held in Adelaide, South Australia at the Hilton Hotel. The theme will remain the same Together we can: Connect, Innovate, Transform. As we look toward to 2022, we will be relaunching the call for abstract process in August-September 2021. We thank everyone who took the time to submit a paper for our June 2021 conference and encourage you to review the Call for Abstracts when released and resubmit for the 2022 Conference if suited.

We know the sector is very keen to get together face to face and move beyond the socially isolated COVID-19 existence to share their learnings and their experiences with one another once again. While it is disappointing that we will not be able to hold a Conference in 2021, FRSA is planning to hold a FRSA Member’s Only Strategic Leadership Forum in Canberra in November 2021. Stay tuned for more details on that event.

Our Conference Secretariat Kaigi will be in touch with delegates who have already registered to either transfer their Conference registration to May 2022 or organise a refund.
