OA Conference - 'Strength through diversity'

Registration for the OA's online conference on 15 September 2021 is now open! 

The focus of the conference this year is on ‘Strength through diversity’.  We have two excellent keynote speakers for the plenary sessions - Charlotte Valeur and Dr Elizabeth Linos - who will talk about the importance of  harnessing diversity, particularly in terms of gender, race, and neurodiversity, and the importance of ‘belonging’ and the impact that has on staff burnout.

Further sessions on the future of work, supporting staff, and recruiting the right people will enable members to share their experiences of dealing with the challenges faced in the past year and to look ahead to recovery.

You will also have the opportunity to network with colleagues during the Networking Breaks through innovative ‘coffee roulette’ sessions and there will be a variety of short videos available to watch on-demand.

 The full programme is available on our conference page together with speaker details, workshop information, on-demand video topics and registration details.

We hope you’ll be able to join us to discuss these important issues.
