AASW National Excellence Awards
The AASW National Excellence Awards showcase social workers, researchers and students who exemplify the best of the profession’s values, achievements and accomplishments.
Help bring their work to light by nominating them for the AASW National Excellence Awards – a powerful way to open doors, spark new conversations and help others see what’s possible.
Do you know a social worker advancing the profession in bold, creative and values-led ways? It might be a peer – it might be you.
Nominations open soon
Even just the nomination can be such a beautiful way of saying to someone: I see you, I hear you, I think the world needs more of your work.
– Mishma Kumar-Jonson, Social Worker of the Year 2024
There’s a lot of great social work research happening without recognition – and this is one way to highlight that impact.
– Dr Gerard Jefferies, Researcher of the Year 2023
Whether it’s innovative research, advocacy or practice that creates real change, these awards recognise the depth and diversity of social work across Australia.
Nominations close 5:00pm AEST Friday 26 September.
