Register of active research
The ANROWS Register of Active Research (RAR) aims to provide a comprehensive landscape of research currently in progress in Australia that relates to violence against women and their children. It lists research projects that are underway, or recently completed but not yet published
In October 2020 ANROWS released Australia’s National Research Agenda to Reduce Violence against Women and their Children (ANRA 2020-2022). The purpose of ANRA is to direct research effort towards addressing priority evidence gaps for policy and systems-wide practice design, nationally. It includes, where known, reference to research underway in priority areas as part of APPENDIX B.
A centralised register of current research in priority research areas is an important resource for researchers who are considering projects and seeking research funding, and for research funders when assessing grant applications. The RAR can also be a useful resource for researchers seeking to collaborate across jurisdictions and disciplines on future projects.
To be included in the RAR, research must be related to violence against women and their children, have an Australian target population, and employ a robust, rigorous and ethical research design.
The utility of the RAR is dependent on researchers registering relevant projects. Therefore, we strongly encourage researchers to register relevant project details as soon as practicable.
The RAR is currently under development to enhance its search functions, update the inclusion of new projects and move published research to the ANROWS Library. Submitted projects will be uploaded to the RAR as soon as possible after registration.
