ASEH Connects Call for Proposals

What is ASEH Connects? 

ASEH Connects aims to foster a vibrant, accessible, and fun virtual ASEH community by holding online events proposed and hosted by the ASEH membership. ASEH Connects is a continuation of the 2023-24 online series that brings together environmental historians and other scholars for presentations and discussions on environmental scholarship, pedagogy, academic life, public engagement, and more.

When is ASEH Connects?

ASEH Connects is a year-round series with events at least once every month. Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis, and proposal organizers can schedule their session time in consultation with the ASEH Connects committee.

Why submit an ASEH Connects Proposal?

Because environmental historians have more to talk about than just research! Last year’s session topics included meet the pets; open writing sessions; alt-ac careers; board games and EH; demystifying academia; and decolonizing syllabi. We welcome proposals from any member of ASEH – grad students, post-docs, alt-ac careers, independent researchers, professors – for similar events, repeats of previous successful events, and ideas for new events.

How to Submit to ASEH Connects:

The ASEH Connects submission process is entirely separate from the in-person conference to be held in Pittsburgh in April and ASEH Presents, the online conference.

Submissions will be evaluated by the ASEH Connects program committee, which is composed of Daniel Macfarlane, Diana Alejandra Méndez Rojas, and Steve Hausmann.

Event organizers will be responsible for creating a zoom link, but ASEH Connects will announce the event through ASEH networks. The ASEH has no plans to record or archive any sessions, though organizers and presenters may make recordings, if the requisite permissions from all participants are secured.
