Event Details

Following feedback from the Directors Forum, ARMA and Ex Libris are hosting a series of virtual roundtable events aimed at improving members’ understanding of the UKRI R&D Roadmap and sparking debate about our place in achieving the aim of making the UK a research superpower. These events will invite contributions from an expert panel before opening up the discussion for attendees.

The next event will be held on Thursday 28th January (12.00 pm) where we will be exploring the opportunities and challenges of recruiting, retaining and diverse talent in all areas of the research ecosystem. The discussion will invite contributions from panellists on the social, cultural and political dimensions of quality, diversity and inclusion in research.

The roundtable is designed to be interactive and attendees will be invited to pose questions and discussion points for the panel before and during the event. If you would like to submit any questions or discussion points in advance, please email these directly to enquiries@arma.ac.uk.

Events will be recorded but will only be available to access after the event by attendees.
