Introduction to the Methodologies in Reverse Series
February 13, 2025, 14h30-16h30
Room 2, CES | Alta
This session will introduce the Methodologies in Reverse Series and the academic-activist questions and debates that guide it, with a particular focus on the contributions of decolonial and transformative action-research methodologies. Guided by the “Tarot of transgressive research” exercise, there will be a discussion with the participants on the reason for each person’s research, and how they position themselves in that research.
