Vortragende Person/Vortragende Personen:

This upcoming roundtable will focus on the challenges and barriers academics face when transitioning between different academic systems, positions, and countries. We will discuss not just mobility from the global south to western countries but also vice versa.

First participants will explore personal experiences of transitioning from positions like PhD to Post-Doc and the complexities of moving from one country's academic system to another. The discussion will aim to uncover the common hurdles that arise in navigating these diverse academic environments.

Second, the roundtable will shift to a broader analysis of the systemic barriers that exist in academic transitions. Participants will examine how these obstacles affect global collaboration, with a particular focus on partnerships with the Global South.

By identifying both anecdotal and generalized insights, the roundtable seeks to foster a deeper understanding of how academic mobility can be enhanced and what institutional changes are necessary to create mutually inclusive and accessible career pathways for academics across the globe.

This event is a cooperation of the Clusters of Inequality and Collective Behavior, the Zukunftskolleg and the Equal Opportunity Office.

Please register until November 29, 2024.
