As part of the Academic Freedom Week, we invite Scholars at Risk to confidential 45-minute coaching sessions. These sessions provide a supportive space to

  • Reflect on your current professional situation
  • Explore career paths in academia or other sectors
  • Identify next steps for your career development

 

Who Can Benefit?

This program is designed for researchers whose lives, freedom, or well-being are under threat and who experience heightened uncertainty about their professional future.

During the sessions, you may discuss topics such as career transitions, funding or contract insecurity, professional goals, CV feedback, or any other career-related topic.

Please note: While a 45-minute session cannot resolve structural challenges, it can help you clarify your priorities and define actionable steps.

The sessions will be led by Dr. Ulrike Schneeberg, an experienced coach and trainer specializing in academic career transitions and reflective leadership.


Registration

Capacity: 27 coaching sessions available (first come, first served).

After registering, you will receive a calendar link from the trainer to book an individual 45-minute coaching session at a convenient time.
