Location: Auditorium Mallorca
Description: This workshop is an in-person event, part of the webinar series: “Voices for Well-Being in Aquatic Sciences'' run by the Early Career Committee (ECC) of ASLO. We are 12 ECRs in aquatic sciences and we recognize the struggles many of us face in our academic careers. Our goal is to increase awareness and offer support through open conversations about the importance of self-care and self-help tools and techniques that can be easily implemented in daily life to maintain our well-being. The webinar series addresses common well-being challenges such as advisor-ECR dynamics, imposter syndrome, productivity guilt, funding/financial stability, and those specific to aquatic sciences, such as field campaigns (e.g., research cruises, remote expeditions, and underwater research) that promote close quarters, 24/7 interactions. We encourage you to share your academic experiences and the solutions you reached, to inspire and motivate your fellow attendees.
