led by Emma Davidson and Helen Berry, Binks Hub, University of Edinburgh
This workshop offers a creative and hands-on guide to participatory research approaches and methods. By sharing our own research experiences, we will reflect on the different forms that participatory research can take. We will consider the practicalities of setting up your project, as well as offering ‘hands-on’ experience using a range of creative tools that can be employed at different cycles of the research. Students will work together to identify and discuss the limitations and challenges of participatory research approaches, including issues related to process, ethics, engagement, analysis, and impact.
Attendees will be sent a video and a reading to review in advance of the session.
