The Access and Equity Scoping Report was commissioned by the Australasian Association of Writing Programs (AAWP) Executive Committee of Management in June 2025. Dr. Axel-Nathaniel Rose was asked to scope AAWP members’ experiences of marginalisation, minoritisation, and exclusion within their work as writer-scholars, and query what AAWP could offer them within a portfolio addressing equity, diversity, access, and inclusion. This Report is the product of interviews with sixteen AAWP members. It is a working document which will be revised in collaboration with AAWP’s membership over time.
If you would like to share your experience or contribute to the work of the Access and Equity Portfolio, please contact Dr. Axel-Nathaniel “Axel” Rose, at a.rose@unsw.edu.au. Phone and video appointments can be made on request.
