A Talk on Exploring Implicit Grassroots Knowledge: Strategies and Insights for Fieldwork

By Dr. Olga Ustyuzhantseva

Date: 21st January 2025 at 03:00 PM

Venue: Room 227, SSS-1, JNU, New Delhi

Brief Bio: Dr. Olga Ustyuzhantseva is a Senior Research Fellow of the Institute of World Economy and International Relations (Russia) and a Senior Research Associate of Trilateral Chair on Transformative innovation and 4th Industrial Revolution for Sustainable development, University of Johannesburg (South Africa).

Abstract: Fieldwork is the cornerstone of social science research, providing a bridge between theoretical inquiry and the lived realities of communities – holders of grassroots and traditional knowledge and expertise. This talk delves into the nuances of fieldwork in the contemporary world, exploring its methodologies, challenges, and opportunities this complexity provides us with. Topics include the key elements of ethnographic research, participant observation, and conducting interviews as core tools for getting access and immersion into grassroots knowledge and gathering qualitative data. A particular focus will be given to understanding the role of main actors in the field, from gatekeepers and key informants to the broader community. The talk will offer practical strategies for accessing and engaging with field sites, especially in contexts that are geographically remote, culturally distinct, or socially closed. Additionally, attendees will learn some techniques to extract deep insights in a time-efficient manner, ensuring impactful outcomes even within constrained timelines. All it is based on live examples from actual fieldwork done by the presenter for research projects and fieldwork done in South Africa, Arctic cities, Siberia, and Russia's coal regions.
