Description: The focus of the webinar is on how host organisations can best support researchers at risk to make the most out of their stay at the organisation, mindful of the particular needs and challenges they face. This includes the need to prepare for future career steps.

This webinar is part of a series organised by the Inspireurope project, an EU-funded initiative to support, promote and integrate researchers at risk in Europe. These include researchers who are at risk in their countries of origin (due to discrimination, persecution, suffering and/or violence) or are seeking refuge out of these reasons or have recently found refuge in Europe.
Topics will include:
• Introduction to the Inspireurope project and opportunities to get involved
• An overview of findings on hosting and supporting researchers at risk from the Inspireurope report; Researchers at Risk: Mapping Europe’s Response
• Perspectives of researchers at risk currently being hosted in European higher education institutions and employed in a private sector company
• Opportunities to raise questions with the expert panel and share ideas for future webinar topics

The full list of speakers are:
• Karolina Catoni (Chair), University of Gothenburg, Sweden,
• Marit Egner, University of Oslo, Norway,
• Souad Odeh, IT Technical Advisor at FI Group, France,
• Eqbal Dauqan, University of Oslo, Norway
• Ahmet Gürata, Stockholm University, Sweden.
When registering you will be asked to provide your first name and email address. Please note that an alias/pseudonym may be provided instead of your first name if you do not wish to share this information.
