More than 1000 members responded to our invitation and we are overwhelmed by this unexpectedly high involvement. Your participation allows us to continue our work on precarity we have started during the AGM seminar 2017 in Bern. At the Stockholm Conference, the EASA Survey was briefly presented by the PrecAnthro Collective (represented by Martin Fotta) and the PrecAnthro Liaison Officers. We are now continuing the analysis of the data and aim at preparing an overall report and a policy statement for further negotiations at different EU and national levels. Next November, EASA will participate in the meeting of the European Alliance for Social Sciences and Humanities (EASSH) and we do hope to be able to contribute to a broader debate. Plenary C at the Stockholm conference was organized in order to spread information on studies about precarity from different points of view. Four early career scholars (Lara McKenzie, Martine Schaer, Vinicius Ferreira, and Christian Rogler) presented findings of their ethnographic research. Studies were conducted in different parts of the world as in Australia, Latin America, Europe and Asia. The early career researchers raised issues of mobility, greedy institutions and affects.
