Traditionally, the AFRN has elected a Convenor to lead the network, ensure the annual conference is held and act as a point of contact for the network and more recently, take care of a modest budget. Professor David Burch held the first Convenorship for the first ten years of the networks, followed by Drs Bill Pritchard, Kristen Lyons and Carol Richards.

At the 2014 AFRN conference, Drs Carolyn Morris and Corrina Tucker were elected as the network’s co-convenors. Dr Carolyn Morris is a Senior Lecturer in Social Anthropology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand, while Dr Corrina Tucker is also based at Massey University, and is a Lecturer in Environmental Sociology.

For inquiries about the network, please contact either Carolyn or Corrina by email.
