To get together – Enhancement of the capacities of displaced communities from Ukraine living in Slovakia through living heritage

Selected project outcomes

On November 15, 2024, a participatory meeting was held in Bratislava to discuss the findings of a research study on the role of Ukrainian living heritage in displacement and the importance of its safeguarding. The meeting included research partners who participated in the study from July 2023 to February 2024.

 

The purpose of the meeting was to present the research findings and consult with those who took part in the study. This approach aligns with participatory methods in qualitative research, which aim to reduce epistemic inequality, ensure equity and fairness in relationships with research partners, and strengthen the voices of non-academic participants. By involving them in the process of interpretation, it also provides essential feedback on the use of research findings and on how research data is applied in academic contexts.

 

The meeting was attended by 29 participants. Feedback and discussion on individual findings and conclusions enriched the interpretative dimension of the research from the perspective of the target community.
