If people talk to us, will we listen?
Understanding peoples’ unique values, ideas, passions and hopes for the future is why I became ‘hooked’ on qualitative research. Social research is my passion.
Qualitative methods
I can design qualitative projects that include interviews, observation or focus groups with policy stakeholders.
My PhD into sea-level rise adaptation ‘The micropolitics of transformative sea-level rise adaptation in Brisbane Water and Wamberal Beach, Central Coast, Australia’ identified the history and contemporary debates about coastal management in Australia.
My recent publication for Regional Environmental Change, called ‘Towards an agonistic approach to planned retreat: fear, anger, and hope in the Central Coast, Australia‘ utilises qualitative research to understand and address community mobilisation against planned retreat.
