DSAI Summer School: From Ameliorative to Transformative Change: Methodologies of ‘Doing Participation’ in Development and Humanitarian Contexts, 5-6 June 2019
Development Studies Association Ireland (DSAI)
The third DSAI Summer School focuses on innovative ways of doing development research which places participation and "citizen-driven" research at the centre of its practice. It explores the relationship between research and action, and the role of researcher activist. This summer school examines methodologies of citizen empowerment and ‘doing participation’ in the context of urban and rural poverty, displacement, and globalisation. It problematizes the ‘expert stance’ and asks how the activist practitioner researcher can promote both equity and efficiency in development and humanitarian contexts through lay methodologies. It asks how we can scale this learning beyond micro settings to being embedded within the global development and humanitarian community.DegreeCourse TypeLanguage
