Dear EAAS members,

We are delighted to invite you to the first official meeting of the newly founded “EAAS Postgraduate and ECR Network”!

Building on existing postgraduate and ECR structures within the national organizations of the European Association for American Studies (EAAS), this Network brings together emerging scholars engaged in the field of (European) American Studies. We seek to enhance visibility, foster collaboration, and provide a forum to discuss concerns and opportunities for postgraduates and early career researchers. We aim to prioritize postgraduate representation, inclusion, diversity, and equity, while also creating avenues for professional and personal exchange across Europe.

The first official online meeting will take place soon.
