Children’s Research Network

The Children’s Research Network (CRN) of Ireland and Northern Ireland is made up of members with an interest in research and/or involved in the research community across the island of Ireland.

The network is inclusive, independent and works not-for-profit, engaging members across a variety of disciplines including research, policymaking and advocacy.

The Children's Research Network welcomes those who are outside academia or do not identify as 'researchers' but wish to stay informed and up-skilled in terms of research and evidence-informed practice or policy. Our membership spans a wide range of practitioners and service-providers, from NGOs; community, voluntary and social enterprise entities; to government/statutory bodies. As part of the network, members can stay up to date on ongoing research, participate and attend events and network with peers with similar interests.
