Methods that Matter:
Anthropological and Mixed Methods
to Understand Contemporary Social Issues and Inform Real World Policy
September 20, 2013
hosted at
This conference is a platform for engaged discussion on the theories and mixed methods grounded in psychological anthropology that facilitate research collaborations to address real world problems.
Organized and hosted by Cameron Hay and the Department of Anthropology at Miami University, we invite faculty, graduate students, and other researchers to attend this meeting and engage in discussions about mutual interests.
In addition to the invited program, a small number of abstracts will be accepted for 5 minute talks or "speed papers" which highlight key ideas (with a maximum of 3 slides slides). Speed papers are excellent for prompting further discussions during the coffee-breaks!
There is no fee for attending but registration is required.
