The Social Research Centre hosts Conversations in Australia™, a dedicated community of research participants who contribute to our social research projects on a regular basis. The community brings together more than 2,000 Australians from across the country and from all walks of life, ensuring our researchers are able to purposively select the right participants for our projects. Members are given the opportunity to express interest in research opportunities and, based on their eligibility, are invited to contribute to, discuss, explore, and design research solutions.
Participants have been successfully recruited from the community for countless projects including qualitative deep-dives, survey development and testing, interviews, focus groups and online community research. Our members are experienced with the research process and trust our researchers to create a welcoming, inclusive, and safe space to participate in research.
