“…Hence, this research embraces a stance of power with the participant (Charura & Wicaksono, 2023; Proctor, 2021). It also evidences the repositioning of power in the research alliance to the participant, seeing the researcher as the learner, dwelling alongside the participant through their narrative journey (Plumb, 2008) and positioning the participant as the expert of their own experiences (Rogers, 1961).…”

“…The relationship between humans and artefacts has long been studied, researched and recognised in the field of anthropology (Edwards & L'Anson, 2020). Yet, research as a whole has seemingly shifted from the concept of learning as dwelling (Plumb, 2008), where the researcher weaves their way alongside the participant through their social, natural and cultural world and its tensions, towards the preferential perspectives of cognitive learning situated solely in the mind (Edwards & L'Anson, 2020). This shift appears to have lost the learning in the realm of research, which stems from mutuality and from the continuous nature of flow between the material world and that which is embedded in the immaterial, the human and the relational.…”

“…Lastly, decolonising research and practice is about challenging and critiquing how Eurocentric ideas and methodologies are given pre‐eminence in ways of researching mental health and ill health, even when they do not fit other groups (Charura & Lago, 2021). In response to this, we decided to use object elicitation as a decolonised approach because it positions the researcher as the learner (Plumb, 2008) and, at the same time, positions both the participant and the researcher as having power with one another, rather than the researcher having power over the participant (Charura & Wicaksono, 2023).…”

This study provides an innovative, compassionate and culturally informed method for psychotherapy research, using object elicitation with 13 participants from vulnerable groups. It examines the positive impact it has on building the research alliance, enhanced depth of sharing within qualitative research interviews and emic ways of knowing through the engagement with a culturally relevant, tangible, internalised or transitional object brought by vulnerable participants from diverse cultural contexts of origin. Results showcase how a creative and compassionate research method can promote a culturally informed research alliance with vulnerable participants, helping to build trust, rapport and relational depth; encourage elicitation of experiences; and empower emic and subjugated voices. The implications of this study make the case for the inclusion of object elicitation as a creative and compassionate method in qualitative research with traumatised and vulnerable individuals, which should be used as part of a culturally informed approach to psychotherapy research.

“…This fine tuning and alteration to synch with the world around us, as a consequence of learning from ongoing experimentation, b and our own fallibility, connects well with Peirce's abduction as part of a logic of discovery, 24 and with the more recent conception of learning as dwelling. 25 From this latter perspective, as we progressively interweave and attune our embodied practices with the world, rather than simply a transformation in our thinking, a transformed sense of self is implicated. 25 We and the world not only become but each has the potential to transform the other, 25 in an iterative developmental process of evolution.…”

Divergent approaches to resolving pressures on NRM and DRR programs: A case study of sustainable fire management training

In the contexts of natural resource management (NRM) and disaster risk reduction (DRR), landholders are increasingly expected to take responsibility for issues which extend beyond property boundaries. Numerous programs are being developed to train landholders to meet these expectations, however the ontological underpinnings, goals and outcomes of these programs can be radically different. Using sustainable fire management as a case study, we compare a modernist approach to training, which educates landholders in the scientific and legislative aspects of NRM and DRR with the aim of persuading them towards particular decisions, with a relational framework which aims to develop new ways of knowing and being that recognises the mutually entwined trajectories of embodied humans, fire and land. Each of these programs initially appeals to different landholders but we suggest that learning styles are malleable and that training has the potential to guide not only what landholders do with their land, but also their ways of 'knowing' human/fire/ land relations. We discuss the circumstances in which each program might be most appropriate and conclude by emphasising the importance of explicit consideration of these issues by training organisations, funding bodies and policy makers.Keywords sustainable, fire, divergent, approaches, resolving, pressures, nrm, management, drr, training, programs, case, study Disciplines Education | Social and Behavioral SciencesPublication Details Edwards, A. & Gill, N.
