Drawing across the Disciplines: Fieldwork

The Centre for Research & Innovation Support (CRIS) presents the next session in the Drawing Across the Disciplines series. In this session, we explore Fieldwork. We will explore how scholars define fieldwork from where it happens, to how it is orchestrated, and to what skills are needed to do fieldwork in particular sub-disciplines. Scholars at UofT conduct fieldwork in the GTA, in Canada, and around the world. Each site offers new opportunities and challenges that will be featured in the multi-disciplinary panel.  

As with past the Drawing Across the Discipline sessions, this webinar will be followed by a hands-on, limited enrolment workshop. Case studies will illuminate how different disciplines think with fieldwork and offer insights into university resources for compliance and safety when carrying out fieldwork. Particular attention will be paid to ensuring considerations of safety, equity, and inclusive fieldwork practices.
