Starting in 2021, ASLE-UKI organises a regular online seminar series.
This page provides information about our upcoming seminars as well as an archive of previous seminar topics. We welcome ideas for future seminars. If you would be interested in organising a seminar, please get in touch.
Our seminars are free to attend, but there are some costs involved in their organisation. If you enjoyed the seminar, please do consider making a small donation to help cover our costs.
