Standing Group on Citizenship: Early Careers Lounge

Get talking. Get inspired!

Next session

To be confirmed by late April. Register here to receive the most up-to-date details.

Our Standing Group on Citizenship is thrilled to present its Early Careers Lounge – a brand-new series of FREE virtual meet-ups for PhD students and early career scholars interested in citizenship, civic education, political participation, migration and related topics.

The series aims to create an inspiring space for regular sessions that enable researchers in the field to chat and exchange ideas in an informal and supportive environment.

How it works

The session will feature two fantastic speakers from the Early Careers Lounge who will provide a brief insight into their current research, followed by a Q&A session.

You will then be invited to join breakout rooms. The theme of this session’s breakout rooms will be on research/ PhD related issues. Each attendee will have the chance to talk through an issue they are currently facing and receive feedback and support from fellow attendees.

Join this event to:

  • Expand your academic network
  • Discuss your research project
  • Share ideas and get inspired

Our speakers

Vladěna Bätge Jahn is pursuing a PhD at Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences at Vrije Universiteit Brussel, where she is a member of Brussels Research Centre for Innovation in Learning and Diversity. In her doctoral research, she explores an intersection of mobile learning and development of transferable skills in higher education context.

In the future, Vladena would like to focus on competency development at scale, targeting integrative negotiation, conflict transformation and collaborative problem solving skills cluster. Vladena also works as a Researcher in Sport and Cognition Department at Leibniz University Hannover in Germany.

Emily Anne Wolff is a PhD candidate at Leiden University. Emily’s research uses qualitative sociological methods to explore the drivers of inequality and redistribution from comparative perspective. Their current research, which forms part of the project Borders of Equality, explores the symbolic and legal boundaries of social citizenship in post-war Europe, as means of disentangling the relationship between race/culture/identity and welfare across time and space.

About the Standing Group

The Standing Group on Citizenship investigates citizenship and its personal, cultural, social, economic and political implications through interdisciplinary research from multiple theoretical perspectives. It addresses how citizenship continues to formulate relations between polities and individuals through rights, duties, participation and identities. In the context of increased diversity, less participation and growing political distrust, the Standing Group also explores and researches how schools prepare citizens for their civic life in citizenship education.
