The Theology and Action Research Network (TARN) connects up researchers and practitioners involved in a variety of action and participative research with a theological perspective. Historically The Network grew out of work done in developing the theological action research methodology; but today seeks to broaden this conversation to includes not only practical theologians, but action researchers, other involved in participative research, as well as faith based practitioners across the globe. The and in our title is important to us, as it highlights our multi-perspective, trans-disciplinary reach.
As the popularity of Theological Action Research methodologies has grown, TARN has responded in offering regular training days for researchers and doctoral supervisors. Details of these are available here.
