This Action Research Centre (ARC) website is the fourth program of action research resourcing initiated by the Action Research Issues Association Inc. (ARIA) since its inception in 1988. The previous three action research centres and programs (see Our history) have each had a program (see Our work program) of methodology R&D, networking, advisory/consultancy, teaching/learning, and written and other resources, in accordance with ARIA's constitutional objectives. Currently ARC is focusing on building this website and reintroducing the remaining elements over time, starting with a modest publishing program from 2010.

The Action Research Issues Association (ARIA) that runs ARC is a small community-based organisation incorporated in the State of Victoria, Australia. Its approximately 30 members are mostly Victorian-based but several are interstate. See The Association page and the Contact us page for further details.

As part of the work program of ARC, the Association auspices a state-wide network of around 300 people called SPIRAL (Systemic●Participatory●Inquiry●Research●Action●Learning). SPIRAL has a regular monthly e-newsletter and an annual program of dinner seminars. See the SPIRAL page under Networking in Our work program on this site, or go to SPIRAL's own website at  http://spiral-victoria.net/
