Ethical concerns

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/s0340986_research-design-for-public-and-global-health-2021-2022flex/2022/01/29/ethical-concerns/

Study participants: My proposed study design will include directly gathering data from participants face-to-face. The proposed participants would all be adults.

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/s1648283_contemporary-art--open-learning-2021-2022sem1/2021/12/07/incidental-sculpture/

A time of celebration and recognition, Pride Month is honoured every June across the globe.

A gun for the end of the world, by Joe Anderson

https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/covid19perspectives/2020/06/25/a-gun-for-the-end-of-the-world-by-joe-anderson/

As the coronavirus pandemic unfolds, I have watched gun rights organizations like the National Rifle Association (NRA) find a profound sense of justification. I spent a year researching and learning to shoot with gun rights activists in Southern California and was struck by the fact that their reasons for owning firearms were often framed around […]
