Planning Activities

  • Welcome Paula to the committee. Looking forward to working together

    • Change meeting time to 8am WA time

    • Quarterly online event - previously discussed planning of webinar series. Never got off the ground with the last committee. Will be somewhat superseded by the RSE conference. But a need for smaller, more frequent events (webinars or local meetups) to grow engagement outside of the annual conference is recognised. ARDC may be able to assist with organisation.

    • RSE Survey - closes end February. An event to present results would need to be in late March/early April ACTION tentative Report on RSE survey results in April. investigate live-stream options with anonymous chat function

    • Direction/Strategy of committee - We need to think about how we operate. Do we want to remain high level contributors with a lot of community engagement for direction through the mechanisms of the conference and mailing list engagement. Or deal with more minutiae. But maybe we build a starting point for the conversation. What does the future look like?
