Doing Ethnography

The workshop aimed at exploring the underlying principles and practices of ethnographic research, which, broadly speaking, involves studying people 'at first hand', in detail, usually at length and in the context in which they live, work, play etc. By exploring and problematizing early anthropological approaches, we will trace critiques and developments that take ethnography ‘off the veranda’ and into somewhat more reflexive and sensitive terrain. The workshop covered :
Key ethnographic concepts and approaches
Important ethnographic studies
Critiques, strengths and weaknesses.
