Here we define ECRs in a broad sense, to include researchers with or without a PhD working in survey data collection organisations as well as post-doctoral research fellows (PDRFs) working in academia.
The first Early Career Researchers Conference was held at the University of Essex in February 2025. The programme included presentations from ECRs involved in the Survey Futures project, showcasing their research work, as well as a keynote talk and a panel discussion. A book of abstracts and presentation slides are available here.
The second Early Career Researchers Conference will be held at the University of Southampton on 5 February 2026.
