Webinar - Managing separation associated with Australian Antarctic Program (AAP) participation.
Managing an extended period of separation can be one of the more challenging aspects of participation in the Australian Antarctic Program (AAP) - for both our expeditioners as well as their family & friends back home. Before deciding to accept a role, it's important that you consider and plan for this.
In late May 2025 we delivered a webinar for Season 2025-26 applicants and their families where we talked about some of the challenges that expeditioners often speak about and shared some practical tips and strategies for managing the separation period
For privacy reasons, the webinar was not recorded but if you would like to receive a copy of the presentation slides and the questions/answers from the session, please provide your email here and we’ll send them to you.
If you would like to learn more about managing separation during AAP participation, our Separation Guide contains some useful information. You're also welcome to reach out to our Family & Friends Liaison Officer who can be contacted via FFLO@aad.gov.au or 1800 030 680.
