Announcing the 2021 AAPS Postgraduate and Early Career Researchers’ Symposium
After the disappointment of having to cancel our 2020 conference due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are very pleased to invite proposals from postgraduate and early career Pacific studies scholars to participate in a research symposium to be held across 8-9 April, 2021.
In focusing our 2021 gathering on the work of our postgraduate and early career members, we recognise the particular challenges that many of them have faced during the past 12 months of the pandemic, including the effects of lockdown and travel restrictions on fieldwork, as well as on opportunities for conference travel and participation in wider scholarly networks. We warmly invite all other AAPS members to also attend the symposium, to learn from and support the work being done by our postgraduate and ECR members, and to join in the discussions that follow.
