The American Research Institute of the South Caucasus (ARISC) invites you to
attend an online roundtable discussion:

Research in the South Caucasus in the Time of COVID-19 & Beyond

Wednesday, July 29, 2020 
8pm South Caucasus/ 12pm eastern US/ 11am central US

The COVID-19 global pandemic has upended research in the South Caucasus. The
pandemic has paused US-South Caucasus partnerships, and research outcomes may
be impacted for some time to come. 

The American Research Institute of the South Caucasus (ARISC) invites you to
attend a roundtable discussion: “Research in the South Caucasus in the Time of
COVID-19 & Beyond.” Panelists will discuss the different ways research in
their disciplines has been affected due to the global pandemic, challenges and
opportunities for scholars and students to continue research, potential
creative solutions to getting past the current barriers, as well as the
post-COVID future of research in each panelist's discipline. The virtual
format for the roundtable will include a series of short (5-7 minute)
presentations from researchers representing a range of disciplines and working
in different countries of the South Caucasus, followed by a moderated
discussion with the audience. With so many collaborations on hold, this
roundtable will offer our community a chance to come together and discuss new
ideas for thinking through research projects.

Roundtable Presenters:

- Lori Khatchadourian (Cornell University)
- Leah Feldman (University of Chicago)
- Giorgi Khelashvili (Director of Research at the Georgian Parliament)
- Anna Oldfield (Coastal Carolina University)
- Malkhaz Toria (Ilia State University)
Roundtable Moderator: Kate Franklin (Birkbeck University of London)

The event is free and open to the public. 
Registration is required. Please email info at arisc.org with your name,
institutional affiliation, email address, and the subject “Roundtable.” We
will then send you information on how to join the Roundtable.
