Connecting Theory and Method in Critical Approaches to Research with ‘Vulnerable’ Groups

Description

Putting It into Practice: Connecting Theory and Method in Critical Approaches to Research with “Vulnerable” Groups

In this session we explore how we can translate critical approaches to “vulnerability” into methodological training and research practice. We will consider how to balance pragmatic research needs with epistemological goals in research with “vulnerable” groups.
