Research in Latin America and the Caribbean: Leading the Push for Inclusion of Early-Career Researchers

CILAC 2021, the Latin America and the Caribbean Open Science Forum, is taking place online from 26 – 28 April 2021. The Open Science Forum for Latin America and the Caribbean has construed itself as a key regional space for debates and exchanges and is organized every two years, alternating in distinct cities throughout the region. It seeks to establish itself as a platform for the outlining of common positions and aspirations for a scientific, technological, and innovation agenda supporting sustainable development whilst simultaneously giving the region a strong voice in the global scope of the World Science Forum.

The GYA is organising a side event as part of the CILAC 2021 conference, scheduled for 27 & 28 April 2021 from 12:00-14:00 UTC. Entitled ‘Research in Latin America and the Caribbean: Leading the Push for Inclusion of Early-Career Researchers’, this online forum brings together a diverse panel of experts to discuss two key issues. The first session will address the conceptualisation of early-career researcher in the region and beyond, as well as the elements that make distinct the Latin American experience. The second session will focus on the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on early-career researchers’ trajectories, everyday life and labour conditions, and the response that some governments of the region have had to the current challenges.
