The Survival of Tourism in a Pandemic

As we closed borders, cancelled events and self-quarantined at home on a mass scale, the travel industry, as well as many other sectors, began to nosedive. However, even with our focus shifting to navigating through this global health crisis, the desire to travel has remained. Join our panel of research and industry experts, including UniSA’s Professor Andrew Beer, Professor Marianna Sigala, Dr Ben Stubbs and Council of Australian Tour Operators Chairman Dennis Bunnik, as they explore the ways COVID-19 has redefined the way we practice and experience tourism.

Effective Qualitative Research: a Masterclass

Qualitative researchers often try to do the same as quantitative research but with smaller samples. This interactive masterclass is relevant to PhD students and early career researchers and more experienced researchers who want to do qualitative research and to write it up rigorously and effectively. It provides guidance on how to use the latest constructionist approaches which treat our data as instances of complex behaviours and hence complementary to quantitative research.
