Listening Project Roundtable Workshops
Five afternoon tea workshops will be held in 2008 leading to a multi-authored publication around the theme of 'listening' in 2009. For each workshop, the convenors and 2-3 invited participants will be asked to prepare a brief and information discussion starter, which might take the form of a commentary of existing literature or research, or a discussion of a particular project, research methodology etc. The discussion will be structured to lead to the identification of potential collaborative projects and papers for publication.
If you wish to participate in The Listening Project, email Cate Thill. If you would like to attend a workshop, please send a statement indicating in 200 words of less why you are interested in a specific workshop topic and whether or not you are doing related research, as well as a short CV (4 pages max). Alternateively, if you are interested in contributing to a proposed publication on the theme of listening, please send a short abstract and outline of a paper on one of the workshop topics.
The deadline for expressions of interest in the workshops and publication is 29 February 2008.
Early career, post-graduate, regional and rural researchers are strongly encouraged to apply.
There is a small amount of funding available for interstate travel to the workshops that will be allocated on a competitive basis. Please indicate in your application if you are interested in applying for funding.
The workshops have been sponsored by the ARC Cutural Research Network and the Transforming Cultures Research Centre.
