In this episode, Edward sits down with Claire, Communications Officer at the University of Oxford, to talk about her role as collaborator on the Gen Z Role Models Project.

They discuss the rewards of doing collaborative research and explore the lessons that Claire is taking forward. They also discuss Gen Z religion in light of what Edward and Claire learnt at the European Academy of Religion in Vienna.

They talk about:

• The aspirations and tensions involved in participatory research
• The joys of researching alongside one's day job
• The unglamorous realities of doing research in higher education
• The diversity of Gen Z approaches to religion, specifically in Indonesia

Join us for this special, behind-the-scenes conversation about the power of teamwork and the excitement of doing participatory research in the humanities.
