AsIAm is committed to supporting quality-based research opportunities that benefit and support the Autistic community. We receive many requests from different organisations, researchers and individuals with research opportunities. Unfortunately we are not always able to engage with all research requests. If you would like to know more about research opportunities or current research activity from AsIAm, please see below or email policy@asiam.ie.
AsIAm is proud to partner with the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre (DRCC), RCSI and We-Consent to conduct Ireland’s first comprehensive research into Autistic children and adults’ experiences and understanding of consent, and their right to protection from sexual harm.
AsIAm is partnering with the University of Limerick to better understand Autistic adults’ experiences of suicidality. The research aims to explore this with Autistic adults to better understand why some experience suicidal thoughts and feelings, and what supports could help our community.
