This month on the 22th of April:

Visual Research Methods in End-of-Life Research

Visual methods have been extensively used in social research to explore people’s experiences of structural disadvantage. This indicates that they may provide a useful research approach to understanding equity-related concerns within palliative care. However, to date, there has been little use of visual methods with people at the end of life generally, let alone with people experiencing structural disadvantage. During this webinar, Naomi Richards will discuss the potential of image-based research, followed by an introduction to previous research using visual methods. During the webinar, she will discuss three specific visual methods in detail: photovoice, professional photography and digital storytelling.

Naomi Richards is Director of the End of Life Studies Group at the University of Glasgow. She is a Senior Lecturer in Social Science and is a social anthropologist by training. She teaches on the University of Glasgow’s End of Life Studies Programme (Micro-credential/PGCert/PGDip/MSc).
