Oral History Western Australia

The annual meeting of the Oral History Association will be held from 15-18 October 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia, United States.

The year 2025 marks 250 years since the Declaration of Independence was signed. For this year’s Annual Meeting, the Oral History Association will convene people around the question: What is America?

Participants will reflect on the ways in which American identity is documented, framed, and perceived by its citizens and the world.

Just as Americans have proven their resilience and capacity for change, oral history, as a field, has been undergoing a paradigm shift towards radical inclusivity. The Annual Meeting serves as a gathering space to amplify practitioners finding new possibilities, generating new approaches, reassessing best practices, and recalling and refurbishing the fundamentally democratic impulse of oral history practice.
