[ecrea] QI2009 Call for Submissions

Wed Oct 14 20:03:28 GMT 2009



The Sixth International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry (QI2010) is now
taking submissions online. The theme of the 2010 Congress is "Qualitative
Inquiry for a Global Community in Crisis."

It is clear that in these troubling political times qualitative researchers
are called upon to become human rights advocates, to honor the sanctity of
life, and the core values of privacy, human dignity, peace, justice, freedom
from fear and violence.

The 2010 Congress will offer scholars the opportunity to form coalitions, to
engage in debate, and dialogue on how qualitative research can be used to
can advance the causes of social justice, while addressing racial, ethnic,
gender and environmental disparities in education, welfare and healthcare.
Delegates will show how critical inquiry can be used to bridge gaps in
cultural and linguistic understandings.

Sessions will take up such topics as: the politics of evidence; alternatives
to evidence-based models; mixed-methods; public policy discourse; social
justice; human subject research; indigenous research ethics; decolonizing
inquiry; standpoint epistemologies. Contributors are invited to experiment
with traditional and new methodologies, with new presentational formats
(drama, performance, poetry, autoethnography, fiction). Such work will offer
guidelines and exemplars showing how qualitative research can be used in the
human rights and policy-making arenas.
