Project Description
Early-career researchers often feel like small fish in a big pond, surrounded by towering giants of knowledge. However, considering this apparent drawback overlooks a potential opportunity for networking and collaboration. To facilitate engagement in a way where ideas can swim freely, I (Joseph) present FISH which is “fun interactions through sketches and humour”. Drawing inspiration from the metaphor of fishing, this form of interaction allows attendees (at conferences) to cast their intellectual nets, hook meaningful networks, and navigate the currents of collaboration. Embark on this academic angling adventure with me, where engagement isn't just a catchphrase; it's the bait that hooks us into the vibrant, collaborative learning ecosystem, making every conference a reel success.
