Feeling Cross..... (Disciplinary)

Some of our members are sociologists but also identify with other disciplines. Many more of us are sociologists but use material from other disciplines. Here's a list of some research organisations which overlap with some of the work we FRG members do. What else do you use?

The Association of Feminist Economists
http://www.iaffe.org/
The Association supports economists who address feminist concerns. Australian members include social policy researcher Gabrielle Meagher.

The Australian Time Users group
http://www.deakin.edu.au/buslaw/australian-time-users-group/research/
Researchers using Time Use data include Jane-Maree Maher and Eileen Willis with areas including wrok-life balance.

Australian Population Council
http://www.apa.org.au/index/aims
Promotes population studies in Australia. Has available small grant schemes, and not just for demographers. Edith Gray and Dharma Arunachalam, family researchers, serve on the Council.
