Webinar Description

Research ethics, enacted at a global level, continue to be framed within a Westernized, patriarchal, “one and done” context. How might researchers’ personal and local cultural ethics positively impact the entire qualitative research process from conceptualization to publication? Attendees will leave with a process for developing their personal research ethics stance in order to engage with research as a culturally responsive, ethical researcher who is always becoming.
