The Research Process – A Guide for People and Communities
This resource is designed to support communities that are not typically involved in research. It provides accessible information about the different ways they can be involved, explains commonly used research terms, and outlines how they can be supported throughout the process.

It also serves as a guide for researchers, suggesting principles for meaningful and respectful involvement of people from communities. The resource is most effective when used alongside a facilitated community engagement and involvement activity. In these settings, researchers, who have been supported to engage in conversations, can use the resource to help sustain ongoing involvement with community members beyond the initial activity, in ways that are aligned with community members preferences.

Abstract

This resource is designed to support communities that are not typically involved in research. It provides accessible information about the different ways they can be involved, explains commonly used research terms, and outlines how they can be supported throughout the process.

It also serves as a guide for researchers, suggesting principles for meaningful and respectful involvement of people from communities. The resource is most effective when used alongside a facilitated community engagement and involvement activity. In these settings, researchers, who have been supported to engage in conversations, can use the resource to help sustain ongoing involvement with community members beyond the initial activity, in ways that are aligned with community members preferences.
