In this workshop Yafa Shanneik will share her experiences and knowledge about the arts-based research method body mapping and its possibilities using virtual reality (VR). Professor Shannaeik’s research employs a decolonial and participatory framework aimed at understanding the lived experience of displaced communities from the Middle East.

To initiate the session Mikaela Linell, PhD student at the department of sociology, will give a general introduction to body mapping research and its unique composition which allows for exploration of embodied perspectives and insights.

We warmly welcome you to this session where you can deepen your methodological knowledge about creative techniques for qualitative research.
