Reference Groups

Reference groups have, or will be, established to inform each of the Centre’s research streams. They act as advisors - informing the development of our research, discussing implications of the findings and promoting dissemination of research in the field.

Reference groups are made up of academics, policy-makers and practitioners with particular expertise in that area of research. They meet regularly (once to twice a year) with researchers from these streams. They will also work ‘virtually’ to advise and comment on our research.

Reference groups have so far been established for Below the Radar, Social Enterprise and Service Delivery streams. We will advertise calls for further reference group members on our website, as well as through our e-news bulletin.
