Description

The RRPP is organizing a training seminar on the computer assisted Qualitative Data Management and Analysis. The event takes place on 5-6 February 2016 in Belgrade, Serbia and will be convened by Dr. Roy Gava, University of Geneva, and Dr. Lea Sgier, Central European University (CEU), Budapest.

This workshop aims to address the very process of qualitative data management and analysis and provide practical tools to deal with it. It is centered around various ways in which unstructured data can be turned into structured data before being processed further either qualitatively or quantitatively.

The workshop starts from the "core" of qualitative data analysis, i.e. the coding process. From there, we then move to the preceding step of operationalisation (which turns abstract or/and general concepts into observable or "measurable" entities).
Finally, we will link the process of data analysis to the wider research process (including data collection and transformation, and possibly writing up etc.).

Participants

The workshop is intended for participants living and working in the Western Balkan countries:

  • junior researchers in social sciences (MA graduates willing to pursue academic career, PhD students) who are relatively new to qualitative research and wish to gain a general understanding of the process of qualitative data analysis;
  • senior researchers in social sciences who are in charge of RRPP (or other) projects of some scale who would like to know about more sophisticated or complex tools for data analysis.
