Research Dive is a hackathon-style event organized by Pulse Lab Jakarta (PLJ), in which groups of researchers get together to explore and analyse given data sets related to the development and humanitarian issues in Indonesia within a four-day period. Selected researchers from research organizations will be grouped into four to five teams, to analyze data, develop analytical tools, and produce technical reports that will be widely shared.
We are interested in the following profiles:
PLJ will select the final list of participants based on (a) academic background, (b) research experience including publication records, and (c) the quality/relevance of the applicant’s suggested approaches to data analysis.
The Research Dive will be held over a four-day period. Participants will be welcomed on the first day with an introduction to the lab, followed by a brainstorming session on the research methods. Over the next two days, the participants will conduct research in their respective groups. The final presentation will take place on the last day, to share their findings and receive peer feedback.
Research Dive is designed for mid-career researchers. We assume that applicants will have had their doctorates for approximately six years, as an indicator of having reached mid-career level. We consider those who have had their doctorates for more than 6 years to be senior researchers. While senior researchers are regrettably ineligible to participate in this event, we hope that there will be other opportunities for collaboration in the future.

The participants will be grouped based on task preference, research experience, and academic background.
Participants are strongly recommended to bring their own laptop, charger, flash disk/external hard disk, research tools, instruments, software and any additional materials they may need. If there is an additional software, please contact to plj-proposals@un.or.id
PLJ will cover the participants' expenses including transportation (from outside-Jakarta only), meals and snacks, and accommodation for the duration of the event.
We strongly encourage participants to be present for the entire event in order to have a better understanding of the research topic and fully immerse in the research dive experience.
Each Research Dive has different theme. If you have relevant research experience and hands-on skills on related theme, you are welcome to apply.
