Good morning!
I have worked with Zarina over the past few years and she has been involved in many projects in St Albert’s including our Spring Fayre. I know that Zarina would be delighted to meet you for you to share some of your stories. This session will run over a morning next week. Day has to be confirmed.
Please phone the office or reply to this post if you are interested in taking part in this research.
Thank you
Karen
Zarina Ahmad is a PhD researcher at the University of Manchester in the department of Politics and the Sustainable Consumption Institute.
The research explores the sustainable food practices of Pakistani heritage women in the UK to see if mainstream policy and decisions makers are inclusive of their cultural knowledge. The research will be conducted across 2 cities Manchester and Glasgow.
The first phase of the research involves focus group sessions. The focus group discussions will explore what the food practices of British Pakistani Women ? what is their heritage and culture , and what does sustainability mean to them.
Date and Time:
To be confirmed
Venue: St Alberts Primary School
What is involved :
This is a discussion group with a max of 8 women.
The subject of the discussion is food practices, Pakistani heritage and sustainability. I’m looking for the opinion and views of everyday women so not looking for a panel of experts just people who are willing to share their opinions.
What do you need to bring? Each woman has been asked to bring along a food item, cooked or uncooked, (something that can be shared preferably but essential) which resonates or reflects their understanding of sustainability.
Thanks
Zarina
