We’re very pleased to announce a new conference, ‘Creative Research Methods in the Social Sciences’. It’s on 8 May 2015 at the British Library conference centre in London.
The conference is being run by the Social Research Association and will bring together researchers from a range of disciplines and sectors to share experiences and learning.
Professor David Gauntlett from the University of Westminster, author of several books including Creative Explorations and Making is Connecting, has agreed to give the keynote speech, and four subject experts will chair workshop streams and form a final panel:
● Dr Kitrina Douglas, champion golfer, broadcaster, sports researcher at Leeds Beckett University (formerly Leeds Met), poet and songwriter, will chair the ‘arts-based research’ workshop stream
● Jamie Bartlett, Director of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Demos, will chair the ‘research using technology’ workshop stream
● Matt Barnard, Head of Evaluation at NSPCC, will chair the ‘mixed method research’ workshop stream
● Dr Molly Warrington, Senior Lecturer in Human Geography at Cambridge University, will chair the ‘transformative research frameworks’ stream.
We’ve already had a lot of interest in the conference – our recent call for workshop presentations received over 90 submissions, a remarkable and unprecedented response.
The standard delegate rate for the day is £105, and until the end of January there is a 10% early-bird discount. (Members of the SRA receive additional discounts.)
We do hope you will be able to join us on 8 May. Please find out more and book your place on the SRA website: http://the-sra.org.uk/event-registration/?ee=212
