There is a new group called Action Research Connections based on the North Shore campus.<\/p>\n<p>For the uninitiated: action research (sometimes called participatory action research or co-design) is all about creating a positive impact through the research process. Action researchers work with participants in an active partnership, often co-designing the research together for everyone&#8217;s mutual benefit. This is a way of managing power dynamics and diminishing hierarchies. It is often used where the participants are members of a marginalised community.<\/p>\n<p>If you are using (or interested in) action research methods, you may like to head along to the next meeting of the Action Research Connections group on March 8th from 4-6pm in AE114a.<\/p>\n<p>The group is a mix of staff and postgraduate student researchers, with a focus on providing mentorship and creating connections between researchers with similar interests. There is conversation and often a presentation from an action researcher. Associate Professor Lesley Ferkins will facilitate the March meeting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thesislink.aut.ac.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/Action-Research-Connections-March-2018.pdf\">Check out the flyer here<\/a>, or contact PhD student Livvie Baudinet (livvie.baudinet@aut.ac.nz) for more information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good news, action researchers!
