Fantastic conference on #leadership & #genderequality hosted by @EquiLeadOrg. Key message: #leadership is not a title or position but a journey of tapping into one's authentic self & being outrageously audacious. It is okay to feel vulnerable, emotional & have bad days. (1/2)

Should we stop using the word #stakeholder in #participatory #engagement research & practice? Our paper critically examines the limitations of "stakeholder" and its ambiguity, normativity, potential for (further) exclusion & marginalisation. Open access: link.springer.com/article/10…

Secondly, for outcomes ‘self-reported’ by participants, who else do we expect to report experiences on behalf of the person experiencing them? PS: This could be my 'subjective bias' as a qual researcher.😶 (4/4)

Findings are meant unearth the reasons 'why' an experience is common to many or uniquely defying norms and generalisability. Calling it a ‘limitation’ of qualitative studies is counterintuitive to the objective of qual methods. (3/4)

Quite baffling to me when I come across such statements in the ‘Limitation’ sections of qual studies. Firstly, my understanding as a #qualitative researcher is that qual studies are not designed to make generalisable conclusions but to highlight subjective experiences. (2/4)

“This study suffers from the limitations of generalizability common to #qualitative #research studies.” “This [qualitative] study has several limitations. The first is that abortion outcomes were self-reported by people who self-managed [an abortion].” (1/4)

Based on the findings, what made institutionalising #community action for #health under NRHM possible? - Boundary-spanning decision makers - Space for diverse political mobilisations - State-civil society partnerships in framing 'communitization' and implementation
