The All-Island Research Culture Conference programme includes sessions that address Research Assessment, Engaged Research, and Equality Diversity and Inclusion. Please see descriptions below.
The All-Island Research Culture Network, supported by the Wellcome Institutional Funding for Research Culture will be launched at this conference. The network will initially be led by University College Dublin and Queen's University Belfast. Regular network meetings, alternating between in-person and hybrid will facilitate sharing best practice and current developments in areas that impact Research Culture (open research, research assessment, research integrity, RURM, EDI, recognition of team contributions, wellbeing).
We look forward to productive conversations about the culture of research across the island and hope you will join us on the day.
