In today's complex and interconnected world, understanding the lived experiences of underserved and marginalized communities is of paramount importance. Traditional qualitative research methods often fall short in capturing the rich, multifaceted narratives of these communities. This book seeks to address this gap by introducing "Photostories" as an innovative and transformative method for conducting qualitative research. Photostories harness the power of participatory photography to enable individuals from underserved and marginalized communities to visually articulate their stories, experiences, and perspectives. “Photostories” aims to be a pioneering resource for researchers, educators, and practitioners seeking to add a participatory visual method to their menu of research approaches, while at the same time offering ways to empower marginalized communities and amplify their voices through the transformative power of photography. By delving into the nuances of Photostories, readers will gain valuable insights into a groundbreaking research method that has the potential to reshape the way we conduct qualitative research and engage with underserved populations. Scholars in the social sciences, anthropology, sociology, psychology, and related disciplines will benefit from the methodological insights, practical guidance, and case studies presented in the book.

"Making Knowledge Together - Addressing Climate Change through Innovative Place Based Education and Blended Learning" is the official name of the Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership project, shortly EduChange. The project aimed to innovate our way of teaching about Climate Change in both local and global perspectives via the field course methodology. It brought together students and teachers from four European universities - University of Malta, Utrecht University (the Netherlands), Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim (Norway), and Palacky University Olomouc (Czechia) with an idea, that teaching and learning in the field is often rather traditional and teacher-led. Through EduChange, we wanted to transform field courses into innovative, creative learning environments in which teachers, students and pupils can create knowledge together. We believe that supporting innovation and creativity can be achieved via international partnerships and inter- and trans-dis- ciplinary approaches. This book presents the overall methodology used during the EduChange project.

This book provides an inventory of modes of inquiry for ethnographic research and presents fieldwork as an act of relational invention. It advances contemporary debates in ethnography by arguing that the empirical practice of anthropology is and has always been an inventive activity. Bringing together contributions from scholars across the world, the volume offers an expansive vision of the resourcefulness that anthropologists unfold in their empirical investigations by compiling inventive social and material techniques, or field devices, for anthropological inquiry. The chapters seek to inspire both novel and experienced practitioners of ethnography to venture into the many possibilities of fieldwork, to demonstrate the essential creative and inventive practices neglected in traditional accounts of ethnography, and to invite anthropologists to confidently engage in inventive fieldwork practices.

"The great purpose of landscape art is to make us at home in our own country" was the nationalist maxim motivating the Group of Seven's artistic project. The empty landscape paintings of the Group played a significant role in the nationalization of nature in Canada, particularly in the development of ideas about northernness, wilderness, and identity. In Beyond Wilderness contributors pick up where the Group of Seven left off. They demonstrate that since the 1960s a growing body of both art and critical writing has looked "beyond wilderness" to re-imagine landscape in a world of vastly altered political, technological, and environmental circumstances. By emphasizing social relationships, changing identity politics, and issues of colonial power and dispossession, contemporary artists have produced landscape art that explores what was absent in the work of their predecessors. Beyond Wilderness expands the public understanding of Canadian landscape representation, tracing debates about the place of landscape in Canadian art and the national imagination through the twentieth century to the present. Critical writings from both contemporary and historically significant curators, historians, feminists, media theorists, and cultural critics and exactingly reproduced artworks by contemporary and historical artists are brought together in productive dialogue. Beyond Wilderness explains why landscape art in Canada had to be reinvented, and what forms the reinvention took.
