The Life-Writing Research Network is a global academic community of people engaged in life-writing research. We aim to provide researchers from around the world with a space to share their work, ask questions of the community, and learn more about life-writing research taking place worldwide.
Research Network members benefit from:
- online networking sessions to meet and share with each other
- priority booking for key events, such as lectures and masterclasses
- access to closed events such as research seminars and our annual summer showcase
Who can join?
The network is open to all, including academics, students, authors, and independent researchers. There is no restriction on discipline or career stage.
Many network members are former OCLW Visiting Scholars or early-career researchers and writers who intend to apply to the scheme at a later stage, so the network offers opportunities for lifelong networking, relationship building, support, and exchange of ideas.
