This interactive workshop brings together research exchange and career development reflection. Early-career researchers will present their work through concise three-minute pitches, followed by a world café-style session where participants engage in small-group discussions and provide structured, constructive feedback. The second part features a semi-structured fishbowl discussion exploring key challenges shaping career pathways, including the impact of AI, non-linear trajectories, precarious employment, and the skills needed for adaptable, future-ready profiles. The workshop concludes with a collective reflection, allowing participants to share insights and identify key takeaways on both research communication and evolving career landscapes.
