Developing High-impact Research on Language, Culture and Migration: Collaborative Workshops with Women Early Career Researchers in Malaysia

The project builds on previously developed networks in Malaysia to deliver collaborative writing and mentoring workshops on research publications and grant applications in the intersecting fields of Language, Culture, and Migration. The joint project with two Malaysian universities targets women early career researchers (ECRs) as underrepresented, historically marginalised, and disadvantaged in academic publishing and funding. The workshops and mentoring sessions are designed in an equitable manner which fosters both North-South and South-South collaboration. Experienced academics, including key journal editors, will develop and deliver the workshops, providing targeted feedback and support. This collaboration will result in the formal establishment of a research network, at least one proposal for a journal special issue, a collaborative funding application including one or more of the project partners, and one international webinar. The project’s aim is to foster empowered and independent women researchers in Malaysia who will transform our understanding of Language, Culture, and Migration.
