Call for field research on 'Education in Emergencies'
Dear all,
I'm a PhD student at the University of Leuven, working for the research group 'Education, culture and society' which belongs to the department of Pedagogical Sciences. In my PhD I will focus on Education in Emergencies and more specifically how the notion of conflict-sensitivity is and can be enacted in the classroom. Aiming at a better understanding of how the experiences of conflict and violence enter the classroom and how local actors themselves perceive this process, I hope to be able to contribute to an expanding of the notion of conflict-sensitivity which I believe is crucial to Education in Emergencies, especially when thinking about how to deal with trauma on a social level and how to put forward life skills in volatile situations. Since I want to start from an in-depth analysis of the classroom, I'm looking for an EiE-practice where the main instruction language is English or French. In 2012 I did field research in a township in South-Africa so I have some experience with fieldwork, although not in conflict settings. Through this call on Forced Migration I hope to find an interesting case-study from where to conduct my field-research. If you have any further questions, I'd be more than pleased to answer them.
