SICSS Retreat 2024 - Welcome to the registration pages!
Take a moment to find out what our SICSS Retreat 2024 will be about:
The SICSS retreat aims at building a closer network within the SICSS doctoral members community. We believe that wide and stable networks will support you throughout your doctoral journey and may even trigger your professional journey in life to a great extent.
Our annual SICSS Retreats always comprise certain elements: (a) getting to know each other, (b) new members introduce themselves, (c) doctoral members in their final year give a talk, which is (d) evaluated by their peers and the best talks are honoured. Each year, we have (e) a special focus. This year's focus wll be on biodiversity and climate change. See the tab on the right.
NEW (f): we will have a round table session! you may lead a round table to exchange views on topics and methods! share your experience and learn from each other! Use the padlet found at the round table tab at the right to fill what you like to talk about.
And we always have (g) some leisure activities and lots of time to connect to your peers! Last but not least: (h) at the end you will select your new doctoral speakers.
