NNERPP Subnetworks are specialized learning communities within NNERPP organized by topic or role. The aims of the subnetworks are to connect members that are interested in collaboratively exploring a topic or role more deeply, to provide support for the sharing and development of resources, and to create hubs of expert knowledge for the rest of the Network. We are excited to currently offer a number of active subnetworks and hope to launch additional subnetworks in the future.
Below you’ll find a short description of each type of subnetwork, with an opportunity to indicate your interest in participating by clicking on I’M INTERESTED AND/OR WOULD LIKE TO NOMINATE A FRIEND. Each link leads to the same form where you can specify which subnetworks you are interested in participating in and/or nominate a friend or two to participate in any of the subnetworks as well.
Please note that NNERPP Subnetworks are only open to current NNERPP members.
ACTIVE NNERPP SUBNETWORKS
TOPIC SPECIFIC SUBNETWORKS
The NNERPP Topic Specific Subnetworks reflect our members’ current research areas; the goals are to strengthen relationships with fellow colleagues doing research in a particular area, to build collective expertise on a given topic, and to explore potential opportunities for cross-partnership collaborations.
ROLE ALIKE SUBNETWORKS
The NNERPP Role Alike Subnetworks will bring people together working in similar roles across RPPs, so that they may support each other, share relevant resources, and co-develop new ones. Additionally, we hope the groups also contribute to our larger understanding of their roles in RPPs.
RPP RELATED SUBNETWORKS
The NNERPP RPP Related Subnetworks will consist of small working groups to tackle persistent challenges encountered in RPP work. Additionally, the subnetworks will allow members to workshop RPP-related problems, to access a support team of relevant peers, and to develop and test promising RPP practices for the broader field.
