The Basic Research Methods (BRM) Workshop is designed to equip early-career researchers with essential knowledge and practical skills in research design, data collection, and analysis. Through expert-led sessions and hands-on exercises, participants will develop a strong foundation in research methodologies, supporting the advancement of evidence-based practices and the production of high-quality research outputs.

By the end of the workshop, participants will be expected to present a capsule research proposal that integrates the principles and methodologies learned throughout the training. This initiative aims to strengthen participants’ research competencies and contribute to the growing body of health-related research in the country.
