> The Annenberg School for Communication’s Internet Policy Observatory has
> teamed up with the Center for Technology and Society at the University of
> San Andres, Derechos Digitales, the Center for Technology and Society at
> FGV School of Law in Rio, the Group for Internet Studies at the University
> of the Andes in Bogota, and R3D in Mexico to organize the third regional
> Research Methods Workshop for Internet Policy and Advocacy in Buenos Aires
> for the Latin American and Caribbean region.
>
>
>
> The workshop seeks to provide a venue for stakeholders in the region to
> consolidate existing advocacy and research ventures with more robust
> analytical and evidence-based approaches. The program brings together young
> scholars, activists, lawyers, and technologists for an intensive five-day
> practicum on using methodologically rigorous, data-driven, and contextually
> appropriate research for advocacy. Sessions will cover both qualitative and
> quantitative methods and will provide the space for hands-on activities and
> opportunities to apply these skills to impact real-world internet
> governance policy decisions. In this way, the workshop will
> offer opportunities to connect scholarly expertise with policymakers and
> advocates and improve working synergies between emerging networks of civil
> society organizations, academic centers and think-tanks. The goals of the
> program are to strategically build collaborative possibilities across
> sectors, expand research capacity within practitioner and digital rights
> advocacy communities, and to provide the skills and know-how to use
> research and data to advance advocacy efforts.
>
>
> The program will provide skill-building tutorials on the following topics:
>
>    - Defining and framing research topics and questions
>    - Conducting desk and archival research
>    - Researching law, policy and regulation
>    - Questionnaire/interview design and techniques
>    - Conducting surveys and public opinion research
>    - Network measurement
>    - Social network analysis
>    - Data visualization
>    - Translating research into action: dissemination for advocacy and
>    policymaking impact
>    - Developing proposals for funding and creating actionable research
>    agendas
>
> We encourage individuals from Latin America and the Caribbean in the
> academic (early career), NGO, technology, and public policy sectors to
> apply. Prospective applicants should have a particular area of interest
> related to internet governance and policymaking, censorship, surveillance,
> internet access, political engagement online, protection of human rights
> online, or corporate governance in the ICT sector. Applicants will be asked
> to bring a specific research question to the program to be developed and
> operationalized through trainings, group projects, and one-on-one
> mentorship with top researchers and experts from around the world.
>
>
>
> The course will be mainly conducted in English and applicants should have
> high proficiency in English in order to interact with experts, lecturers
