Methods repositoryThe Use of Research Evidence Methods Repository is an open resource to share learning and improve the use of evidence in policy and practice.
A shared, open-access space
The Methods Repository is a shared space where researchers from any discipline can publish their research methods for others to discover, learn from and adapt.
The sharing of methods such as survey instruments or interview protocols allows researchers to benefit from insights and best practice in other areas.
Use and contribute to a growing repository
As a funder, researcher or publisher, you can search by keyword to find work you are interested in, and filtering options help narrow down search results to only the most relevant work. The repository also provides quick access to journals, research networks and literature.
As a researcher, there is a simple process to upload your work and share it with others. With journals increasingly encouraging authors to openly share research materials, the repository provides a space to do this routinely and easily across the research cycle.
Collaborate with us
We believe that collaborating with partners across different disciplines and geographies will improve the quality, methodological rigour and usefulness of research.
Funders: tell us about research you’re funding that should be in the repository
Publishers: get in touch if you’re interested in embedding use of the repository into your publishing guidelines
The invitation to collaborate extends to all in the community – if you want to share your thoughts, please reach out!
