Ethnographies of health and welfare: Methodological reflections



17 October 2014, University of Turku



The seminar presents insights from ethnographic research on health, wellbeing and social welfare, and addresses the methodological issues arising in the research process. The presentations discuss, among other things, how to define and access the field; the methodology and practice of participatory ethnographic research; the increasing significance of the Internet and social media in ethnographic research; how to carry out and manage ethnographic projects covering multiple sites and time-scales; and the specific benefits of ethnographic methodology in studying health, wellbeing and welfare.

Welcome!
