Training for community members

We have developed a robust training and development programme for community members and organisations interested in the community research approach.

This is inherent to our methodology and approach to research, while enforcing authentic community engagement as a core principle in the development of the community. This underpins this approach. We train our researchers in a variety of qualitative and quantitative research methods as a foundation.

Following this, we implement the ideals of ‘Re-Thinking’ research and what this means to them and their community. Researchers will also become well versed in inclusive and engaging research practice, developed internally, to ensure they have the opportunity to lead their own engagement sessions and projects. We aim to develop not just members of the team, but leaders who can coordinate and manage their own teams.
