Publisher's asked for journals to send this book for review. #AcademicSky, any suggestions? (Interdisciplinary project) www.bloomsbury.com/uk/women-fai... #Academia #AcademicPrecarity #Failure

A new program launches ~60 #MSCA #postdoc fellowships to "train the next generation."
But there’s a discrepancy: zero mention of permanent positions. Funding more temporary roles without increasing faculty jobs just fills an already overcrowded waiting room.
#AcademicPrecarity #MSCA #ichbinhanna

More than half the faculty are OCAD are precariously employed with no pathway to permanency. It doesn’t have to be this way.

OCAD the college had more faculty stability than OCAD the university – this is unacceptable.

Especially in the German system where it can take up to two years to hear back from applying for a professorship, you often wait for years. At an age where you have the most energy and experience, you're forced into constant passivity. 2/2

#IchBinHanna #PDprekär #AcademicPrecarity

An enlightening/depressing read on the eternal early career researcher in the UK - a strong argument for non-established scholars not just to unite across disciplines but across national borders: why don't we confront the ERC with this situation?

#IchBinHanna #PDprekär #AcademicPrecarity

Yet in the German system, "junior" researchers are generally faced with high financial instability. How can you take responsibility for yourself and others if you don't have an income of your own? #PDprekär #IchBinHanna #Generationengerechtigkeit #Verantwortung #AcademicPrecarity 2/2

Allemagne. Précaires de toutes universités, unissez-vous ! Les universitaires non-titulaires sont familier·es des arrangements de l’État avec le droit du travail dans la fonction publique : rémunération sous le SMIC, des mois ou des année plus tard, s’il y a ...

Es ist wichtig, PDs nicht als Nachwuchsforschende zu sehen, sondern als Menschen, die beeindruckende Karrieren in der Wissenschaft vorzuweisen haben.

After months of uncertainty, I finally got the news: no contract renewal. I've written about my experience with #AcademicPrecarity and what it means for scholars like me caught in this broken system. Read more here: www.gianlouishernandez.com/blog#academi...
