Content

The content for this workshop is organized into four primary units: Plotting in R, Mapping in R, Tidy Data, and Wild Data. A Summary provides a recap of the information from the four units and some additional parting resources. There is also a page providing perspective on best practices for Workflows in R. The resources grouped into each unit may be accessed by the table of contents (TOC) on the left of this page.

During the workshop there will be a guest lecture on the creation of a Policy Brief. This will be followed by a two day hands-on session where attendees will break into small groups to develop a policy brief by sourcing data, cleaning it, analysing it, plotting/mapping it, and writing up a brief based on their findings.

Lastly, there are some Bonus materials provided here for further exploration by the interested researchers.
