The project was launched w/c 20th January 2025 with a training session for the 6 student-research assistants who constitute the Student Research Panel (SRP). Except for the project details, we discussed fieldwork and issues we may face during participant recruitment, especially ethical issues relating to how we approach potential participants. The student researchers, full of energy and enthusiasm, embraced their role in their project and their autonomy as a team, taking initiatives and driving fieldwork in their own productive ways. Their enthusiasm is ‘contagious’; it has had a positive impact on us and we hope it will inspire the students they approach to get involved and share their views.
Here we are on the training day!
