Unpacking Q-Research: Context-Specific Considerations and Implications for Climate Change Education in Rural Areas

In this paper, we argue that William Stephenson, Qmethodology, when demonstrated through the research conducted for the SANCOOP: Climate & Beliefs project can provide guidance for doing context-specific mixed-method research and has implications for climate change education in South Africa. In t...
