👋 🥳 It's Launch Day at SocSES! We are excited to embark on the journey of establishing an inclusive global community of researchers, practitioners, and policymakers dedicated to advancing SES knowledge and practice with you. See you at the launch event later today! 🔗 tinyurl.com/SocSESlaunch
Key Principles:

Encourage diverse frameworks, knowledge streams and values, particularly from the Global South, to understand the dynamics of SES and address global challenges.

Encourage diverse methodological approaches, while supporting cross-cutting knowledge development.

Support new ways of (co)-producing and disseminating knowledge, focusing on outputs, spaces and processes that can inform and support policy and practice.

Develop learning spaces that transcend current formal offerings, while supporting the development of SES education in formal educational spaces, particularly in the Global South.

Thoughtful networking in an environmentally sustainable way, recognizing and addressing inequities in networking and publishing opportunities.
