Participate

01 Introduction to Participation Process:

In order to accurately reflect the experiences of spiritual communities in our research, we are looking to work with spiritual individuals, families, and communities from diverse backgrounds. If you would like to contribute to expanding our knowledge of spiritual experiences, you can be part of our research in two ways:

01 As a community partner:

We would like to develop collaborative relationships with spiritual communities and organisations. The primary aim of this collaborative space is to include you in our research so as to best represent your experiences, and to explore how our research could be beneficial to your community.
We are looking for individuals who are involved with workshops and seminars on various types of spiritual practices, men’s and women’s circles, retreats, or other spiritual communities to join us as community partners who will be involved in the research process.


This will involve discussions and workshops to further our understanding of the spiritual community, but also about how our research can be tailored so it can be useful to you.
We hope that our community partners can help us identify events and celebrations that are important parts of their beliefs and practices, and that we will have their help with recruiting participants for other parts of our project. Please reach out to the researchers through this link, or over email to discuss potential collaborations and compensation (?). 

02 As a research participant:

We will be recruiting participants for various types of research studies such as interviews, surveys, and experiments. If you wish to be part of our research, you can find out about ongoing and future research through the participant timeline page. Sign-up links are available for ongoing research, as well as to indicate your interest in being part of future projects.
