Share your professional experiences

WAPA's mission is to help members develop professionally.  If you have a project of interest to your colleagues, an example of a new method, or other information relevant to the practice of anthropology, consider speaking at a WAPA meeting.  We welcome topics in any of the sub-fields of anthropology, and from professionals working in any type of organization.

You do not need to be a member of WAPA to be a speaker.  Benefits include free membership in WAPA for a year.  For information, please contact the Chair of our Planning Committee, Eleanor King.
