Help shape the questions that matter
The Observatory is open to people who want to contribute to better research about human outcomes. You do not need to be a researcher to help identify important questions, share relevant experience or improve how a study is designed.
Contribute ideas and experience
Share a perspective from everyday life, work, education, community or professional practice. Personal experience can help researchers ask more relevant questions; it is not automatically treated as generalisable evidence.
Try sample surveys and research activities
Explore example questions and study activities, and tell us whether they are understandable, respectful, relevant and accessible. Samples are demonstrations unless explicitly identified as an active study.
Explore sample surveys ↗Help shape research methods
Review participant instructions, question wording, measures, accessibility, consent, burden and the way results should be interpreted.
See sample methods ↗Collaborate as an individual
Contribute expertise, lived experience, peer review, research assistance or a new research question.
