Description

Panel organised by the George Ewart Evans Centre for Storytelling:
Listening to people’s stories, we are better placed to understand how they experience the world, the problems they encounter, and the solutions they would like to see manifested. Our starting position is that all research is storied. Rooted in four, 10-minute provocations, the aim is to provide space for attendees to:
· Gain insight into the varied roles and value (and underpinning methodologies) of storytelling as linked to social justice research agendas
· Explore how to address the ethical, practical, and methodological challenges and opportunities of social justice storytelling, and
· Learn about innovative practice and conceptual frameworks that provide ways of operationalising social justice and democratising practice, by addressing epistemic and methodological violence and disavowal
· Discuss the four questions underpinning the provocations

Own contribution:
Research as storytelling and the ways the Capabilities Approach can make explicit implicit assumptions of social justice
