The workshop will provide training and mentoring of women early career researchers in the social sciences, with a focus on Southeast Asia. It will do so through three interrelated activities: a virtual hands-on training workshop where early career researchers present early drafts of their work and receive feedback and guidance from journal editors and established scholars; a physical hands-on training workshop where the early career researchers present revised drafts of their work and receive feedback and guidance from established scholars and peers; and guided discussion during the workshops on research contexts, writing and publishing, and grant funding. Outcomes for each early career researcher include: a piece of research ready to be submitted to a high-level journal; improved writing and reviewing skills; and new and stronger links between individual researchers at different career stages, especially between the early career researchers and editors.
