NEW SEMINARS
BLACK IN ACADEMIA: THE CAREERS SERIESA series of 4 seminars online between May & July 2021 to support Black PhDs & early career academics.
In partnership with @SAGE_Publishing @WileyGlobal & @wellcometrust
publishing, jobs & grant writing!
As well as the existing cuts across UKHE institutions and a volatile academic job market, COVID-19 has thrown up new challenges for ECRs. These matters are likely to be most acute for Black scholars who already face a range of structural barriers.#BlackinAcademia

Similar to our other events for Black students, we are aware that many of these pressing issues go beyond our remit to resolve, but we do believe that we can continue to make small contributions to democratising info about careers and life beyond the PhD1st seminar 19th May!
We encourage registration as there is likely to be limited capacity in all four seminars. #blackinacademia
If you know of Black PhD researchers and ECRs who will benefit from these events please send them this thread so they can register ASAP. https://twitter.com/LeadingRoutes/status/1388039791158124546
