We are excited to announce our keynote speakers and the new format of ESRA21 podcast.

Keynote speakers

Jonathan Burton, Associate Director Understanding Society, will give a keynote speech on “How to do surveys during a pandemic”. The preliminary schedule is on Friday 2 July from 12-13h CET

Melanie Revilla, Deputy Director Research and Expertise Centre for Survey Methodology Universitat Pompeu Fabra, will give a keynote speech on “How to enhance web survey data and get better insights”. The preliminary schedule is on Friday 16 July from 12-13h CET 

Podcast

We will end each day of the conference with a podcast (with video). Two scholars will talk about a particular topic, and a third person will be a sidekick and jump into interesting issues, as well as read out questions from the live chat. The podcast will be live, but also recorded, to enable participants to listen to it at a different point in time.
