What is SCANR?
SCANR stands for the Support Centre for Agriculture and Nutrition Research. The SCANR web tool connects users to resources and provides expert critical perspectives for each stage of the research process - from identifying research questions and methods to finding, collecting, managing, and/or analysing data, to communicating results effectively - as well as a set of curated teaching resources for educators.
Who should use SCANR?
Any researcher, educator, or practitioner interested in interdisciplinary questions related to agriculture, food systems, nutrition, and health! The research guidance and use cases presented in SCANR are intended to provide resources and guidance for researchers interested in collecting primary data or using secondary data to develop and answer interdisciplinary research questions. The teaching resources are a set of curated resources for educators teaching about interdisciplinary agriculture, nutrition, and health topics.
