Way back in 2014, Helen Brown<\/a> got fed up! Her passion for our profession yielded a manifesto<\/a> and the declaration of March as International Research Pride month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I officially declare that from now on, March is International Prospect Research Pride month. Get your elevator speech together and help dispel the mythology that what we do is creepy or invasive. It\u2019s not, and it\u2019s time we all<\/em> let people know.” -Helen Brown<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Each year Helen leads the call for advocacy with a series of blog posts<\/a>. This year, the Prospect Research Institute decided to commemorate 2021 Research Pride month with some activities to cultivate a sense of pride and belonging, and to give you resources you can use to advocate on behalf of our profession<\/p>\n\n\n\n
