Upcoming PhD Day
What is the PhD day all about?
We provide a platform for PhD students to present their research ideas and receive valuable feedback from peers and experienced researchers. In addition to traditional presentations, the PhD Day also offers a variety of workshops and interactive sessions designed to enhance the skills and knowledge on research and publications.
The NPG is committed to providing early-career researchers with a meaningful support that they need to succeed in their academic endeavors and make their mark in the field of sustainable development.
If you are an early-career researcher and passionate about sustainable development, we invite you to join the ISDRS New Professionals Group. Together, we can create a community of support and collaboration, contributing towards our better and sustainable future.
