Emerald Publishing has launched its global Time for change 2021 report
We have published our third academic culture survey. The survey gathered views on change during July and August 2021 with more than 2,000 academics, librarians and students within Emerald’s literati community participating.
In Asia, the report highlights...
- Due to Covid-19 over half (53%) of respondents believe their research will take a hit because there are now less opportunities to travel and collaborate. Researchers in Asia and ME&NA worry most about this issue (64%).
- Globally, most agree (64%) that publishers should do more to support research in underfunded areas. Agreement is high in Asia with 70% agreeing
- The personal impact of the job on academics depends on where they live in the world. Academics in the West seem to be more negatively affected than those in low to middle income regions. Asia scored very low in all areas and were under average in areas such as the impact on mental and physical health sleep patterns and family / personal relationships
Wan Yat Seng, Regional Manager, East Asia at Emerald Publishing, commented on what the report highlights in Asia: 'balance is a very important element to everything we do, especially in such an ever-changing environment where we start to see demand and the need for change from different stakeholders. Balancing the immediate needs against the foreseeable future demand is crucial at this crossroad juncture for us'.
