AusSTS 2020 Online Workshop Series

The AusSTS 2020 online workshop series is broken into 4 weeks, including a keynote by Adia Benton and three interactive workshop sessions. Each session has a different theme and is facilitated by a different group of STS researchers. These sessions broadly ask: what does “participating” in research look like since COVID-19? While COVID-19 has closed access off to some archives, how might new archives now be made available? And finally, how might we use this current moment as a starting point to rethink what “business as usual” research might look like?
