Athena Swan Network Seminar
Thursday 9 March 2023 between 12.00pm and 2.00pm.
This invite with the new date and times is being sent to you as a current member of our Athena Swan Network.
This event is taking place in the same building but a different room which is M2 Lecture Theatre, which is in the Teaching Centre (building beside WBS). There will still be a networking opportunity during the event times in the foyer area outside of the room, but due to another booking in the room we’ll be using for this event, the timings are slightly shorter that previously planned.
Drinks and biscuits/cakes will be provided and available at the event, and please do feel free to bring your lunch with you, to eat during the event or with colleagues during the networking element.
