Join the Advocacy Research Network

Are you a researcher, journalist, data scientist, or developer? Do you have research skills you want to use to support grassroots campaigns and movements?

We are the Advocacy Research Network – a network of volunteer researchers who work in support of social and environmental movements across Oceania.

Want to volunteer with us?

Whether you are interested in volunteering online or in person, fill out the form below and we'll send you everything you need to get going. Make sure you read our ARN member commitments document before signing up. Please note: Questions with a star (*) are required to be answered.

Tell us a bit about you why you're signing up.

We support movement groups working towards a wide range of intersecting goals, including climate justice, better public services, advocating for justice and promoting human rights.

Knowing about your personal motivations helps us understand our members better and match you with projects you'd like to work on.

Tell us about your experience with different kinds of research and tools.

This helps us match you with projects that make the best use of your skills.

The categories reflect the kinds of projects we take on and the skills that currently exist in our community, but these are expanding all the time, so don’t worry if your skill-set isn’t represented in much detail or at all. There is a text-box at the end to give us more details about who you are and what you can do :)

In each subsection, select all skills/areas that you have experience in.
