The workshop is intended for postgraduate students and researchers interested in understanding and conducting a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The sessions will cover the research process from identifying a research question to finding answers in the literature through the SLR methodology. It will cover, amongst other topics, how to build a focused research question using SALSA framework; using the PRISMA checklist; how to read, extract and synthesize the data from the articles; how to write the paper.
