Alongside Chris, the research team currently comprises three volunteers; Barth Louvain delivers the soil, biodiversity and yield tests project, Nicola Graham leads on knowledge management and the library, and Cat Richards has completed the International Research Surveys and is now building the International Research Network. All the members of the team post regular updates about their work.We are always happy to welcome new volunteers to the team!

 

The research team is supported by the Research Advisory Board, 18 experts from academia and other fields who advise on the activities being undertaken and set the key direction of the Association's research through the Research Strategy.

 

The Research Team's work is guided by a five year Research Strategy (2014-2018), which shows how there work contributes to the wider aims of the Association and the permaculture community.

 

In December every year, the Research Team meet with the Research Advisory Board to agree the Annual Research Plan. This shows how the goals of the Research Strategy will be delivered in the coming year.
