The autumn 2024 edition of the Department of Geography and Environment‘s public lecture series „Social Issues - Spatial Issues“ will explore the wide range of qualitative methods used in geography research, going beyond conventionally accepted survey methods such as interviews.
Drawing on contributions from researchers who use what are considered to be creative methods, the aim is to illustrate the many ways in which knowledge can be produced, while at the same time examining what these methods can bring to research, what is at stake, and the possible limits of this new creative enthusiasm.

Yvonne Schmidt, will contribute with a lecture giving insights into the SNSF-Research Project „Eco Art Lab: Relational Encounters between the Arts and Climate Research“


the presentation will be held in english
