SHAPE Futures 2025 Annual Convention

Thanks to all who attended last week’s SHAPE Futures EMCR Network Annual Convention.

The event was well attended with lots of excellent advice shared by the panelists on how to secure funding (both big and small), while also providing an opportunity for discussion about the challenges currently faced by EMCRs in the SHAPE disciplines, particularly those who are precariously placed.

The subsequent networking event also provided a great opportunity to mingle and make connections with other EMCRs while also creating a community of support.

We look forward to continuing these discussions and building our network in the year ahead.

Special thanks too to the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia for supporting attendees through a number of travel bursaries.
