This is a report about the experiences of early career researchers – women and men – and how these experiences are gendered. It is a “voices of” report, because it is designed to present what researchers themselves say about their hopes, concerns, successes, and difficulties.
7,972 early career researchers based in the Global South answered our survey questions about their own research experience and about the research context in their country. This report summarizes our findings and reveals key themes.
In this case study Hasina Afroz, University Librarian at BRAC University, outlines the changes that were made over the course of seven years to significantly improve BRAC University Library with the aim of developing a 21st Century world-class knowledge resource centre.
