Collaborative research in a pandemic: Co-Producing solutions to a crisis

Research output: Contribution to specialist publicationArticle

Abstract

This paper will explore one innovative attempt at promoting knowledge equity in a largescale prisons research project utilising Participatory Action Research (PAR). PAR has a long history in the social sciences but is utilised less frequently in prison research for a variety of pragmatic reasons. This paper will discuss the trials and tribulations of this collaborative method of data collection, and put forward reflections on how prisons could promote a greater culture of
peer-research.
