ECN
Early Career Network
The ISPAH Early Career Network (ECN) is a network of self-defined “early career” researchers and practitioners. The aim of the network is to foster the interaction, capacity and growth of early career professionals in physical activity and public health.
Our main objectives are to:
- Organise meaningful networking, education and mentoring events at major international conferences.
- Facilitate connections between early career ISPAH members with opportunities to collaborate and network
- Build capacity and key skills (e.g. in research methods, policy engagement and career development) among early career ISPAH members through interactive capacity building sessions and conference activities
- Enable informal mentoring and peer support for early career ISPAH members through connections with other ECN members and leaders in the field of physical activity and public health
- Enable ISPAH ECN members to share their research by regularly profiling our members on the ISPAH newsletter and webpages
