DESCRIPTION:For some of us\, our research projects are situated back home 
 or in locations where we have already spent considerable time. For the res
 t of us\, our field sites could be in locations where we are visiting or l
 iving for the first time. Some of us work closely with people in our own c
 ommunities\, whilst others join local communities as external fieldworkers
 . Depending on our backgrounds\, we may navigate fieldwork as "insider" re
 searchers\, "outsider" researchers\, or both. \n\nThere may be varying kin
 ds of social norms and local expectations for researchers from different b
 ackgrounds. Some of us might start our fieldwork as outsiders\, but we may
  find ourselves no longer entirely outsiders after spending some time in t
 he field\, and the ways in which locals consider us may also shift over ti
 me. Similarly\, insiders may be subject to new expectations from their loc
 al communities when returning home for fieldwork after spending some time 
 outside their communities. \n\nAt this workshop\, former fieldworkers will
  share their experiences in the field\, and we will discuss the opportunit
 ies and challenges of navigating fieldwork as insiders\, outsiders\, or bo
 th. The workshop is an open space for meeting other fieldworkers and discu
 ssing various fieldwork-related topics\, including but not limited to tips
  and strategies to prepare for and navigate fieldwork smoothly. Staff and 
 research students are welcome to join the workshop. Refreshments will be p
 rovided. \n\nPanellists \nProfessor Agnieszka Kubal (Associate Professor o

DESCRIPTION:Maintaining well-organised data is essential for researchers t
 o keep accurate records of fieldwork data and make informed decisions. The
  techniques and strategies for securely managing data may differ depending
  on the field sites\, types and amount of data\, and the system or databas
 e used for data collection and analysis. Some may find online data storage
  to be the best option\, while it may not be ideal for those working in re
 mote areas.\n\nIn this panel\, post-fieldworkers will be sharing their exp
 erience and knowledge on managing data during and after the fieldwork. The
  discussion will cover various topics\, such as effective methods and stra
 tegic planning for storing\, organising\, and updating data on both online
  and offline platforms\, as well as some potential challenges and drawback
 s that may arise. We will also delve into practical tools and techniques f
 or backing up data and enhancing security measures to safeguard the confid
 entiality of the data during and after data collection in the field. \n \n
 In Hilary Term\, we will focus specifically on best practices for managing
  data after fieldwork. This panel is designed to be interactive\, with amp
 le time dedicated to Q&A\, so you will have the chance to ask questions an
 d engage in discussions with our panellists. We also warmly encourage netw
 orking\, as this workshop provides an excellent opportunity to connect wit
 h fellow fieldworkers who may be exploring similar research topics\, using
  comparable methods\, or working in the same geographical regions. \n\nRef
 reshments will be provided. \n\nModerator \nKeiko Kanno\n\nPanellists \nDr
