2025 Conference. Workshops. Friday afternoon (26th September)
Delegates have the opportunity to attend 2 workshops out of a choice of 5.
1. The Ethics of Research - Best Practice for Researchers and Communities. Catriona Mallows (UHI)
Community woodlands are often the focal point of a variety of research projects. Whilst there are many positive experiences for communities and researchers alike, there can be challenges including questionable ethical practices, over-research and research fatigue, and a lack of communicating findings. For a number of years, CWA members have asked for a 'best practice guide' to set expectations and requirements for how research can be better conducted. Led by Catriona Mallows, Research Associate at the University of the Highlands and Islands, this workshop is a final step in producing this guide. All are welcome.
