Call for Volunteers
ASEEES seeks volunteers with recent in-region research experience to serve as moderators of these informal conversations. The moderator’s role is to facilitate the discussion among the participants in your breakout room. You are not responsible for answering all questions; the idea is to convene scholars doing research on a similar area to share recent experiences, tips and resources.
If you have recent experience in any of the countries or regions below, please consider volunteering!
Once a meetup has a sufficient number of moderators, ASEEES will be in touch with volunteers to schedule the meetup.
To propose a new meet up, please write to ASEEES Grants & Programs Manager Leah Valtin-Erwin at [email protected].
