The Young Voluntary Sector Researchers’ Conference will take place in December 2002 and its organisers have put out a call for papers.
This one-day conference, to be held on 2nd December 2002 at the NCVO building in London, will provide an informal opportunity for ‘young researchers’ to get together and discuss their ideas. The conference hopes to attract
postgraduate students, those who are starting their careers as researchers, or those who work on voluntary sector research issues as part of their jobs, such as policy or development workers.

methodologies.
