The Association of Iberian and Latin American Studies of Australasia (AILASA), together with the New Zealand Centre for Latin American Studies (NZCLAS) and the Sydney University Research Community Latin America (SURCLA), invites you participate in the upcoming ECR and HDR Research symposium ‘Where Are We Heading?’ The state and future of Iberian and Latin American research in Australia and New Zealand.

This online symposium aims to showcase and promote current HDR and ECR research projects that are driving the future of Iberian and Latin American research in Australia and New Zealand.

We invite interested HDRs and ECRs to deliver 10-minute presentations about their current research. We also invite the overall academic community to attend the symposium to keep updated with emerging research and promote the discussions.

In addition to paper-style presentations that build on specific research findings, we also welcome more informal discussion presentations that provide insights into projects, methodologies, and broader points of interest to the community. Work-in-progress and creative pieces are also welcome. This is a safe space, and we encourage people that have never presented before to join us.

Date: April 26th (Wednesday)

Time: AEST 5:00pm – 7:30pm

Format: 10-minute online presentations via Zoom.
