We seek to support and strengthen research-practice partnerships in the following ways:

We employ the following strategies in pursuit of our objectives:
- Develop and share best partnership practices.
- Synthesize research findings and build knowledge.
- Produce comparative research and facilitate cross-partnership collaborations.
- Advance policies and system reforms.
Our Core Areas of Work
We have come to organize our efforts across four main areas (curate, teach, lead, and broker). Within each, we provide a variety of resources and experiences to support the RPP learning journeys of our members. In addition, we convene both members and non-members around emerging ideas and long-standing challenges in the field of partnership research.

Activities supporting this area of work include:
- RPP Knowledge Clearinghouse and Weekly Research Roundup.
- Bi-weekly newsletter, annual report, website, and social media.
- Listening tours and design sprints.
TEACH: We design and offer training and professional development opportunities to learn about RPPs.
Activities supporting this area of work include:
- NNERPP Annual Forum.
- CSforAll RPP Workshops, RPP course at Rice, and RPP Brokers Workshops.
