Demystifying Research Practice in the Global Education Sector

Centre for Global Education and Irish Development Education Association invite participation in a seminar on Demystifying Research Practice in the Global Education Sector.

The seminar aims to introduce global education practitioners to a range of social science research methodologies, and to explore some of the ways in which action research and participatory action research methods can inform global education practice. The seminar will address the following questions:

• What is social research for? Where does it link with global education? Is there more potential to global education research than evaluation work?
• What are the main methods of research? Why and when would we use them?
• What are research ethics? What significance do ethics have for global education practitioners?

The seminar facilitator will be Mags Liddy (Kimmage Development Studies Centre) who is working with IDEA to build a research community for the global education sector in the island of Ireland.

This event is free of charge but places are limited to 16 and will be allocated on a 'first come, first served' basis. To request a registration form or for further information contact Stephen McCloskey, Centre for Global Education.
