In the past few years, there has been limited visibility of the Australasian community in SE. The breakfast is a community-building activity for joint research collaboration opportunities, joint hosting of key conferences, and increased representation in the key conferences and decision-making committees. The breakfast will also be an opportunity to learn a little bit more about the indigenous background of Australia with a speech from Prof. Chris Lawrence (Associate Dean (Indigenous) at Monash University). It will also be an opportunity to gauge how the SE researchers can engage with the local indigenous communities. We will have dedicated activities and discussions around both topics: (i) increased visibility of the Australasian SE community and (ii) increased engagement of the SE community with the local communities.

Date: May 19th at 07:45 (sharp) Location: Conference Venue (Room 109) Requirements: Registration"

At ICSE’23, we will host a breakfast event for early career researchers (e.g., researchers with five or fewer years of post-PhD experience) and PhD students. This will be an opportunity for the ECRs and PhDs to meet peers and seniors, build new networks, discuss topics that interest them, e.g. writing, publication, job search, career progression, setting up collaborations, mental health etc., and have a fun time together over breakfast.
