Research in Action · Community

Different RinA memberships

Membership of RinA entails an annual membership fee that entitles each member to maintain a profile on the website and gives them access to the members-only space where work in progress can be shared with other members. It allows members to register for private member-only events as well as public events, and to attend on-line and in-person gatherings that are orgnised during the year. The responsibility of participation in the shared governance of the research community is shared by all members, except Research Practioners, who are represented by their convenor(s).

All memberships are renewed or changed annually to ensure that community membership remains an active engagement that supports the community's work. To inquire about membership please use the Contact Us link on the home page:
