Research Design in Social Sciences

I teach ‘ethics’ and ‘qualitative research design’ in  the short course on Research Design and Methodology. The course is funded by USOS (University Foundation for Development Cooperation of the University of Antwerp), VLIR-UOS (Flemish Interuniversity Council) and organized with the Université Catholique de Bukavu in Bukavu, DR Congo. It is open to researchers from Bukavu as well as from the wider region.

In October 2022 we organized the first edition with the Université de Lubumbashi in Lubumbashi, as part of our VLIR-funded ICP Connect Governance. Here is a video impression. Apart from myself, colleagues Sarah Katz-Lavigne and John Ndala were involved.

In March 2023 we organized the first edition with the Université Catholique du Congo in Kinshasa, as part of our VLIR-funded ICP Connect Governance. Colleagues Tom De Herdt, Bossissi Nkuba, Albert Malukisa, Félicité Langwana, and Claude Sumata were involved.
