The New Zealand Studies Association (NZSA) evolved in January 2001 from the New Zealand Study Group that had been previously established in 1992. It hosts an annual conference and now includes the twice-yearly refereed Journal of New Zealand and Pacific Studies .
The main aim of the NZSA is to function as a meeting and information point for encouraging both New Zealand and Pacific Studies in Europe and beyond by providing a forum for the artistic, social, cultural, political, scientific and economic study of New Zealand/Aotearoa and the wider Pacific region.
Since 1994, NZSA/NZSG has organised an annual conference at New Zealand House and the Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London. In 2005, the conference was held at the University of Kent, in 2006 at University Paris, Dauphine, in 2008 in central Florence, in 2009 at Goethe University, Frankfurt, in 2012 at the University of Gdansk, in 2013 at Radboud University Nijmegen, in 2014 at the Norwegian Maritime Museum and Kon-Tiki Museum, Oslo, and in 2015 at the University of Vienna.
