Our Research Project

People have different views of genetic technologies and our research will listen to all perspectives. The project has four stages so participants can drive these conversations:

​

STAGE 1: Public engagement to elicit views of genetic technologies and its role in conservation.

STAGE 2: Workshops to consider Stage 1 results.

STAGE 3: Deliberation with multiple cohorts.

STAGE 4: Integration, analysis and synopsis of results into a final report.
