CSWG "Work (Not?) in Progress" Seminar: Session 3 - Career Progression
“Work (Not?) In Progress” Sessions
An opportunity to connect and discuss
The COVID-19 crisis has impacted all of us in a number of different ways, from our emotional and mental wellbeing to productivity and how we do research. The Centre for the Study of Women and Gender (CSWG) is launching bi-weekly “Work (Not?) In Progress” sessions to informally connect and discuss issues that are affecting our community in this uncertain time.
You do not need to RSVP. The Zoom link for the session will be sent to the CSWG mailing list on the day, so please keep an eye out for that. We ask that you do not share this link beyond our mailing list due to safety.
We welcome all members of our CSWG community to these sessions. We understand many of you are juggling work with other responsibilities at the moment, so we are happy for you to join the event with children or while doing something else.
Wednesday 8th July: Career progression
There have already been articles in the news about how the Covid crisis is generating a gender disparity in publication output. This session is a space to discuss the ways that the current climate has impacted publications, workloads and expectations, career progression, and applications, and strategies to manage some of these challenges.
Session lead: Dr Khursheed Wadia: Dr Wadia has researched and written extensively on gender and political participation and civic engagement and also on gender and policy, focusing on women from racialised minorities in the UK and France.
