The leader of the TIHR Trauma Stream of work, Dr Milena Stateva recently presented an argument on the potential of action research to bring together evidence-based and value-based approaches to practice enhancement and policy making.
She was one of the key speakers at the Qualitative Research for Policy Making 2012 Conference, organised by ISCTE-IUL (Portugal) and Merlien Institute in May 2012. This highly interactive, cross-disciplinary conference brought together top policy researchers and practitioners to discuss best practices for delivering and interpreting qualitative research for policy making.
Milena’s presentation explores the tensions and possible links between value-based and evidence-based research and evaluation approaches, discusses the relevance of action research to policy making and evaluates the ability of action research to bring together these two perspectives through the case study of the Nottinghamshire County Council Fostering Futures Therapeutic Fostering Service.

www.InformationsecurityAudtors.com provides a web based tool (www.riesgoriskmanagement.com) for Auditors to capture information relating to ISO27001 compliance.
The difference the tool makes is the manner in which it acquires compliance evidence and how the Auditor is able to determine the level of compliance and potential gaps.
Evidence reflects an organisation’s behaviour not just prior to the arrival of the auditors but possibly going back for the last two quarters.
The solution is a web based tool that sits on the client’s site and access can be restricted or allowed for 3rd parties. Internal auditors will be able to ensure compliance across all business units as long as they have access to the intranet.
