Join us for an afternoon of expert-led discussion on the topic of academic workload and burnout, voted by our members as the most pressing issue for SHAPE EMCRs in Australia today. After the expert panel, EMCRs will workshop an advocacy strategy with our keynote panellists, setting SHAPE’s action plan on the issue for 2025. A networking event will follow at the UWA University Club allowing EMCRs to connect with each other and senior CHASS delegates.
In 2024, the SHAPE Futures Annual Convention will be held in connection with the Australian Congress of Humanities and Social Sciences, the largest gathering of Humanities and Social Science Scholars in the country. The networking session will be followed by the Academy of Social Sciences ‘Shape the Nation’ keynote, delivered in 2024 by Australia’s Chief Scientist, Dr Cathy Foley.
SHAPE Futures is a free, early- and mid-career network for Australian researchers within and beyond academia in the humanities, creative arts and social sciences.
