The ICDD Early Career Researcher (ECR) Networking Group has been established to foster an inclusive ECR community within ICDD. Through a diverse range of networking and support mechanisms, the group aims to provide the necessary tools and support for ECRs to become established in their chosen fields, create strategic alliances, and raise their professional profile. Further, the group provides unique opportunities and a supportive space for ICDD ECRs around the globe to meet up, both virtually and in person at events, to discuss their work and share their experiences.

ECR objectives include:

• Strengthening ECRs skills and professional networks to support career development in the field of
  X-ray diffraction.
• Ensuring the activities and opportunities offered by ICDD are informed by the needs and interest of ECRs.
• Nurturing and facilitating engagement between and across ECRs, as well as the wider ICDD community, nationally and internationally.
• Supporting ECRs in their career ambitions in the field of X-ray diffraction through skills development, networking opportunities, workshops, and events.
