Are you a graduate student or junior scholar who is enthusiastic about SSN’s work?

Nominate yourself for becoming a members’ representative!

Members’ Representatives are typically graduate students or junior scholars who are looking to become more active in the field. Responsibilities include working closely with the communications editor, updating the SSN and/or Surveillance & Society Journal’s social media streams, updating the website, serving as editorial assistants for the journal’s blog, _blink.

There will also be the possibility for such members to participate on subcommittees (e.g., prize or conference committees) if they desire. The Members’ Representatives will participate in Board discussions, including virtual participation in our Annual General Meeting.

SSN will provide some support for Members’ Representatives who attend the biennial SSN conference held during their term (e.g. fee waiver), with the expectation that the representatives will blog for _blink and/or live-tweet during the event.

For self-nomination, please send a short CV (max three pages) and a cover letter about your motivation to represent members (max one page) to contact@surveillance-studies.net by 30 April 2025.

Please note that you need to be a member before nominating yourself: You can join SSN here.
