APECS is a global, interdisciplinary, and volunteer-driven community, and your voice matters. We are excited to invite all members to participate in our 2025 Member Survey, designed to help us understand your experiences, needs, and ideas for improving our programs, communications, and community engagement.
The survey covers a range of topics, including:
- Communication & Outreach: How you follow APECS news and how we can make our communications more effective.
- International Collaboration & Networking: How APECS supports your connections across regions and disciplines.
- Inclusivity & Barriers to Participation: How we can create a more welcoming and accessible community.
- Recognition, Motivation & Support: How appreciated you feel within APECS and what support you value most.
- Training, Resources & Capacity Sharing: Which tools and training would help you thrive in your role.
- Safety, Well-being & Trust: Ensuring a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment for all members.
Your input will help guide the future of APECS. Completing the survey takes about 15–20 minutes. All responses are anonymous and will be used solely to enhance APECS’ culture, programming, and strategic planning.
Take the survey today and help shape the direction of APECS for the years ahead. Your feedback will ensure we continue to grow as an inclusive, collaborative, and supportive community for early-career polar researchers and professionals.
Thank you for your time and commitment to making APECS stronger and more responsive to our members!
