The Future of Nat Rep

In February 2022 the MRS Representation in Research group sent out a survey to MRS Company Partners with the aim of building a clear picture of the current understanding and practice of ‘Nationally Representative’ research in the UK.

Join MRS for a webinar, where we will take you through the results of the survey and invite debate and further conversation on the topic. Discover:

• What characteristics are currently being used to define projects as “Nat Rep”?
• How likely are companies to add extended characteristics such as ethnicity and sexual orientation to their Nat Rep projects in the near future?
• How much appetite is there for extending the definition of Nat Rep to include characteristics beyond just those used historically?
• What challenges are research practitioners experiencing when trying to make their projects more representative of minority groups?
