As we receive many requests for research support, please complete the Research request form to enable us to advise whether your project can be supported. The information provided will assist us in reviewing your research request against Migrant Help's strategic objectives before being considered by the relevant Business Director. Participation will not be possible without their approval.
Most of the research requests received include access to or the involvement of clients supported by Migrant Help. Migrant Help operate a number of contracts on behalf of commissioners. In these cases, the commissioners are the data controllers, which may mean we are unable to fulfil some research requests.
As part of our commitment to co-production, we have established Lived Experience Advisory Panels (LEAPs) in our services. LEAP members work closely with us to evaluate and develop our services and influence external policy. It is usually possible to engage LEAP members in most research requests, providing they are happy and have the capacity to participate.
Please note, there may be an additional cost for LEAP member participation in research projects, covering staff time, interpretation, translation, wrap around costs and the provision of incentives to participants. We will advise of any additional costs that may be associated with the research request.
