The Most Pressing Issues facing Early and Mid-Career Academics 28/11/22 1.30pm
Details:
The Most Pressing Issues facing Australian Early and Mid-Career Academics in the Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts and How to Solve them.
Early and mid-career researchers and academics (EMCRs) working in the Social Sciences, Humanities, and the Arts within Australia face significant personal and professional challenges, which have only intensified since the COVID-19 pandemic. While there is a degree of awareness within academia of the challenges faced by EMCRs – including increased casualisation and other forms of precarity, devaluing of SHAPE (Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts for People and the Environment) disciplines and related funding cuts – the voice of EMCRs working in these disciplines has not been heard. In part to address this lack of representation, the Australian SHAPE EMCR Network formed in late 2021. As our first priority, we recently surveyed a large number of EMCRs working in SHAPE to quantify and elucidate their concerns, issues, and suggestions for improving experiences of EMCRs. In this session we will present the data and discuss the results emerging from this survey to raise awareness of the current landscape in which EMCRs are attempting to build their careers and establish their personal lives. What are the most pressing issues SHAPE EMCRs face in academia today? We also propose that by coming together within the Australian SHAPE EMCR Network, we can help ensure the humanities, arts, and social sciences thrive and excel in Australia by fostering an inclusive and diverse community that supports, empowers and promotes EMCRs, within and beyond academia.

Social Ventures and the Translation of HASS Research 29/11/22 12.30pm
Details:
Social ventures and the translation of humanities, arts and social sciences research.
This panel organised by the Australasian Council of Deans of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (DASSH) reflects on the way recent government policy shifts towards the commercialisation of university research might impact, shape and change the approaches and habits of arts, social science and humanities researchers. Our panel brings a particular emphasis on social ventures in the context of a discussion about universities’ public benefit mission. We ask whether a clear distinction can be made between ‘social purpose research’, commercialisation, and the implementation of humanities research for public good. Panel members have been invited to provide practice perspectives informed by academic research. Individually, they show success in research that has led to the development of social ventures that involve some university relationships, as well as research expertise that has informed the design of organisations and guided multiple research partnerships. Together, we ask how academic researchers can work to support non-university ventures to achieve public benefit, including thinking about the tensions involved in this work, the sustainability of specific models, and the way researchers might learn to define, approach and commit to this type of work in the ‘HASS’ fields.
