A team of health researchers are running a stakeholder study as part of the NIHR SPCR funded project ‘Qualitative Data Preservation and Sharing’ (Q-DaPS). Q-DaPS will design and evaluate a repository for the preservation and sharing of qualitative health and social care data that has been generated through research studies. The project is jointly led by Professors Fiona Stevenson (UCL) and Geraldine Leydon (Southampton), with Drs Barbara Caddick (Bristol) (lead co-investigator) and Karen Lloyd (UCL) (Senior Research Associate).

 

The team are carrying out interviews with qualitative health researchers, and would like to recruit some participants from the oral history community (regardless of whether your work focuses specifically on health and social care). We are keen to include views and experiences from your discipline where there is a tradition of:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Recording personal stories from participants who are named and identifiable

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Audio/video recordings are retained and deposited in a repository/archive

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Identifiable data is shared with others (researchers, museums, the public)

 

We would be very grateful if you would consider participating, or if you could circulate this information to your networks and colleagues. We would like historians to share their experiences of collecting and working with oral history materials to discuss topics such as:

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Anonymisation

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Ethical challenges/sensitive data

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Data sharing/open data/archives

<!--[if !supportLists]-->·         <!--[endif]-->Secondary analysis

 

If you chose to participate we would ask you to take part in an interview that will take place online (Teams/Zoom) and will last up to 1 hour.
