The Whisper Collective is inspired by art collectives who, through the ages, have come together with shared purpose and vision. We value openness, generosity and kindness and search out others who share these values.We want to be the kind of academy we want to see: inclusive, empowered, engaged and kind. We have been holding small networking events in Australia since 2015 and COVID-19 has inspired us to open these to the world. Enjoy our conversations from #Whisperfest events and specially curated episodes about various topics of studying and working in higher education. The Whisper Collective is bought to you by the Whisper Collective: The Research Whisperer team, Tseen Khoo and Jonathan O’Donnell, Narelle Lemon from The Wellbeing Whisperer via Explore & Create Co, and The Thesis Whisperer, Inger Mewburn.
