The EF seeks to encourage collaboration, exchange of ideas, and professional development among emerging folklorists. Through regular meetings, workshops, and informal discussions, the working group will provide opportunities for participants to present ongoing research, receive feedback, and build international scholarly networks. Through its various initiatives, the group will strengthen the visibility and participation of early-career scholars in ISFNR activities. The group is open to researchers at the early stages of their academic career, including MA students, PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers, and independent scholars in folklore and related fields.
