Session: Participatory Theatre and Walking Methods - Research, Engagement and Dissemination

Time: Tuesday 3rd July, 10:00 - 12:30

Convenor:

Dr Umut Erel (The Open University)

Abstract Details

How can Participatory Theatre and Walking Methods be employed for social research with marginalized groups? The PASAR project worked with migrant families, exploring belonging, citizenship, intergenerational relations and the experiences of those affected by the No Recourse to Public Funds policy. The session will reflect on how these methods are able to create a convivial research practice against the backdrop of an increasingly hostile climate for migrants. The session will reflect on the potential of these participatory methods to engage with research participants as a citizenship practice, creating shared subjugated knowledges, building community and engaging with policy and practice.
