Abstract
In this article, we reflect on the development of New Voices in Social Work Research, a PhD research symposium that has been transplanted from the European TISSA (“The International Social Work & Society Academy”) model to the Australian and Aotearoa New Zealand contexts. We also explore our experience of working collaboratively with academics, researchers, and the emerging community of doctoral scholars who are engaged with the Australia and New Zealand Social Work, Welfare and Research (ANZSWWER) organisation. In our reflection, we consider the early stages of the New Voices in Social Work Research symposium and argue the importance of a space for PhD and Early Career Researchers (ECRs) to build research capabilities and provide opportunities for research dissemination. Finally, we introduce ideas for further research in order to strengthen the New Voices in Social Work Research initiative to better support doctoral researchers in social work education in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand.
