DESCRIPTION:This session introduces the solicited diary method as a qualit
 ative research approach and reflects on its use in research with displaced
  academics. The first part of the session provides a brief theoretical gro
 unding\, outlining what the solicited diary method is\, the kinds of resea
 rch questions it is suited to\, and its key methodological features\, incl
 uding temporality\, participant-led narration\, and ethical complexity.\n\
 nThe second part of the session draws on empirical work with displaced sch
 olars to examine the solicited diary method in practice. It focuses on met
 hodological design choices such as prompting\, duration\, and format\, as 
 well as the ethical and relational considerations that arise when asking p
 articipants to produce diary entries. This section highlights both what th
 e solicited diary method makes visible and the limits of the approach.\n\n
 The final part of the session involves a short\, guided activity followed 
 by collective debriefing and open discussion. This is intended to support 
 participants in thinking through whether\, and under what conditions\, the
  solicited diary method might be appropriate for their own research. No pr
 ior experience with diary methods is assumed.\n\nhttps://teams.microsoft.c
