Aimed particularly at PhD researchers, Fernandez-Gimenez will introduce their research and discuss the theoretical and conceptual frameworks that underpin their work. 

They will pay particular attention to how these frameworks shape methodological choices, data collection, analysis and the interpretation of research findings. 

During the 40-minute presentation, Fernandez-Gimenez hopes to encourage critical reflection on research design and interdisciplinary approaches. The presentation will be followed by an interactive discussion with participants.
