International research toolkit

Research is an international endeavour, and collaboration and research teams are essential to our research environment and culture. COVID-19 has changed the way that we work, and there is a need to develop ways of managing and delivering collaborative research at a distance when we no longer have the same ability to meet and conduct research in person.

The University of Stirling, in partnership with colleagues from University of Cape Town (UCT), Universidade Estadual Paulista - São Paulo State University - (UNESP) and Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE), has developed a Distanced Research Toolkit that will support and enable researchers and those supporting research to work together virtually. The Toolkit will help to catalyse equitable research and knowledge exchange activities between institutions in the Global South and the Global North.
