The Valuing Voices Tool supports you to design and deliver equitable and responsible research projects.
The tool encourages you to use results-based planning (similar to the Theory of Change approach), which is a technique that starts with the end goal of your project, asking: What is the change you want to see in the world? For each principle we provide you with a broad, ultimate goal for change – an outcome. You are asked to apply this outcome to your own research context, and decide what it should look like for your project in practical terms.
The tool will then guide you through the next steps of this process: identifying the outputs that will help you to achieve your outcome, the actions needed to get there, and the necessary resources.
The tool is supported by layers of resources for you to dip into, depending on your prior knowledge, level of interest and available time. We also signpost to other, more detailed resources.
