Research Survey

This survey is designed to develop a coherent knowledge base concerning research currently being undertaken in Ireland regarding children with a parent in prison. It is an overall scoping exercise with a view to developing a network of researchers who can share knowledge and experiences, collaborate on research projects, and develop funding proposals and conduct further initiatives together.

The survey is part of a project - National Advocacy and Research Strategy to support Children Affected by Parental Imprisonment - being undertaken by Dr Fiona Donson and Dr Aisling Parkes (School of Law, University College Cork), the Irish Penal Reform Trust and the Children's Rights Alliance. The project is funded by the Irish Research Council.
