“…The need for culturally competent social and health care requires knowledge of the social and cultural contexts of the people and this can be obtained by research, and particularly the qualitative approach (Smith, 2008(Smith, , 2021Liamputtong, 2010Liamputtong, , 2020Atherton et al, 2020). Many researchers have started to conduct projects with vulnerable and marginalized people in a cross-cultural context.…”

“…But it is crucial that the researchers ensure that their research is conducted ethically and that they take into account the cultural integrity of the participants. With these considerations in place, their research may not harm but benefit local people who take part in it (Cram, 2009(Cram, , 2019Liamputtong, 2010Liamputtong, , 2020Atherton et al, 2020;Broesch et al, 2020;Chilisa, 2020;Gromkowska-Melosik, 2021;Smith, 2021;see chapters 9 and 10 in this volume).…”

“…As a result, researchers who are working within socially responsible research in cross-cultural settings often confront many challenges with very little information on how to deal with these difficulties. Conducting cross-cultural research is rife with ethical and methodological challenges (Hennink, 2008;Liamputtong, 2010;Atherton et al, 2020;Broesch et al, 2020;Sposato & Jeffrey, 2020;Gromkowska-Melosik, 2021). This book is born out of this necessity.…”

Research methodologies need to be aware of new requirements coming from society and, in this point, qualitative inquiry is a basic pillar to bring real transformative social impact. (González, 2021: 11) In this Handbook, the use of qualitative research inquiry is strongly advocated. Qualitative research is essential when researchers have little knowledge of a research area that deals with subjective experiences and situational meanings of their research participants (Liamputtong, 2020). Additionally, the qualitative approach provides a great opportunity for "conveying sensitivity" (Davies et al., 2009: 6). Thus, it helps to eliminate or reduce the distrust that individuals from different cultural groups may have toward research and the researchers (Davies et al., 2009;Denzin & Salvo, 2020;Liamputtong, 2010Liamputtong, , 2020. Qualitative research relies heavily on "words" or narratives that people tell researchers. The focus of this approach is on the social world instead of the world of nature (Cardano, 2020;Liamputtong, 2020Liamputtong, , 2022. Fundamentally, researching social life differs from researching natural phenomena. In the social world, we deal with the subjective experiences of human beings. Thus, our understanding of people's realities can change in different social contexts and over time (Cardano, 2020;Denzin & Salvo, 2020;Liamputtong, 2020). As Goitom (2020: 551) suggests, "the qualitative research paradigm is engaged with understanding how social experiences are created and given meaning."Interpretation and flexibility are the focus of qualitative research (Liamputtong, 2020). The interpretive and flexible approach is necessary for cross-cultural research because the focus of qualitative research is on meaning and interpretation (Creswell
