ResearchTalk has partnered again with the Odum Institute to co-host the 18th Annual Qualitative Research Summer Intensive (July 26–August 6, 2021). This interdisciplinary event features 18 online courses on important topics in qualitative inquiry taught by leading scholars in the field. 

 In this episode, we spoke with three scholars who will be teaching courses addressing issues of social justice at this year’s Intensive: Keon Gilbert, Rashawn Ray, and Kelly Jackson. Each course aims to use qualitative inquiry as a foundation for designing programs and policies to inform social change and social justice efforts. 

  • Dr. Jackson’s course, Qualitative Research with Historically Oppressed Populations: Using Cultural Attunement across the Research Lifecycle, will explore how qualitative researchers can conceive and implement meaningful research that matters to the lives of individuals, families, and communities from historically oppressed racial and ethnic groups. 

  • Dr. Gilbert’s course, Photovoice: Powerful Images that Communicate Current Realities to Direct Social Change, presents an overview of photovoice as a participatory qualitative method that provides a way for community members to take and share photographs that express the strengths and needs of their community. 

  • Dr. Ray’s course, Using Qualitative Inquiry to Contribute to Social Justice, explores how we can use qualitative research via stories, first-person accounts, in-depth interviews, content analysis, and observations to draw attention to underlying mechanisms that define social problems.  

  • A course co-taught by Dr. Ray and Dr. Gilbert, Learning from Marginalized Voices in Community-based Participatory Research, provides researchers with principles and tools to conduct qualitative-focused community-based participatory research.
