Early Career Researcher Pre-Conference
Break the ice at our exclusive Pre-Conference event and join your fellow early career researchers.
This is your opportunity to connect with the ETRS community, contribute to interactive sessions and gain an insight into how universities are tackling sustainability. The ETRS Pre-conference committee offers you the chance to participate in a stimulating workshop and attend enlightening keynote lectures from external speakers and Cardiff University staff.
After the Workshop, you are welcome to join us for a casual dinner nearby! This is a great chance to connect further with the other attendees and event organisers.
