NEWS & UPDATES STAY IN THE KNOW Keep up to date with FUSWA activities, events and news. < Back FUSWA HAS MOVED FUSWA 6 Aug 2024 WE HAVE MOVED TO SSS118 After meticulous planning and dedicated efforts spanning more than 2 years, initiated by our 2022/23 President 'Lucas Clayton', and completed by our 2024 President 'Anna Kennett', the Flinders University Social Work Association (FUSWA) achieved a significant milestone by relocating to the prestigious Social Sciences South building (SSS118). This move marks a pivotal moment in the Association's journey, symbolising growth, progress, and a strengthened commitment to fostering excellence in the field of social work for our students. The transition to the new premises signifies a new chapter for FUSWA, offering enhanced opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and student engagement. The Social Sciences South building's conducive learning environment provides a fitting setting for FUSWA to expand its activities and initiatives. The Association can now leverage the resources and infrastructure of the new location to further its mission of promoting well-being and advocating for students. By establishing a physical presence in Social Sciences South, FUSWA is poised to deepen its connections with students, faculty, and external partners. This strategic move not only consolidates the Association's position within the academic landscape but also opens up avenues for interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange. The close proximately to social work staff within the Social Sciences South building is expected to inspire creativity, foster dialogue, and stimulate critical thinking among FUSWA members, contributing to their professional development and personal growth. As FUSWA settles into its new home, the Association looks forward to embarking on exciting projects, hosting engaging events, and initiating meaningful outreach activities. The transition to the Social Sciences South building represents a transformative moment for FUSWA, signalling a bright future filled with opportunities to make a positive impact on the Flinders society and advance the field of social work for our students.
