The Rural Durham Community Research Network (RDCRN) empowers people in rural communities (Weardale, Teesdale and Derwent Valley) to build lasting research skills, gather valuable insights, shape local decisions, and drive change - strengthening their ability to lead research that makes a difference, now and in the future.
RDCRN aims to bring together like-minded organisations who have an interest in community-led research to share good practice, build knowledge, collaborate and drive change.
As we begin to establish the network and the potential for bringing organisations together as a community of practice it’s important we understand what organisations, groups and communities need and want.
