The Conversation made Palmer redundant in May this year after nearly five years with the University-backed academic publishing platform site, which was founded by Andrew Jaspan in 2011.

Morry is lucky to have you, Charis. A highly topical area of great public importance that deserves the serious journalism and focus you’ll bring to the role.
