The Plan sets out our approach to research as follows:
“Building a credible body of Knowledge through Research
At the present time:
A discussion paper series established to create meaningful discussion and insight into a particular area or issue relevant to the next annual conference.
Creating research that will be meaningful in informing the thinking and practice of international volunteer cooperative organisations and informing the wider discourse on volunteering.
Supporting Members’ involvement in research activities, e.g. UNV research projects.
Coordinating activities through the FORUM Research Working Group.
A small research fund.
Our approach for research is as follows:
Defining a set of research protocols to which all research aligns to ensure the standard of research is high.
Leading and collaborating on key areas of research related to international volunteering and co-operation.
Research partnerships.
Building up our own research fund.
Facilitating Member involvement in research projects.
Recognising and incorporating partner organisations’ perspectives into research activities.”
This paper attempts to address the issues of protocols and related issues of how we work.
