    <description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight:400;">For academic researchers, filling out an institutional ethics review form can sometimes feel like an administrative burden to clear before ‘actual research.’ But what if instead we had the opportunity to pause and reflect on what's currently relevant to the ethics of our research topics and disciplines. </span><span style="font-weight:400;">‘<em>Ethics, unboxed</em>’ delves into these questions to consider how we can ‘unbox’ our approach to ethics beyond the ‘check box’ procedure in ways that inform and align with our research approaches. In this limited series, we interview a variety of university lecturers and researchers on how they navigate contemporary ethical challenges. </span><span style="font-weight:400;">  </span><span style="font-weight:400;"></span><span style="font-weight:400;"></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">This series is co-led by Dr </span><a href="https://sheffield.ac.uk/geography-planning/people/academic-research/nabeela-ahmed"><span style="font-weight:400;">Nabeela Ahmed</span></a><span style="font-weight:400;"> and Dr </span><a href="https://sheffield.ac.uk/geography-planning/people/academic-research/ac-davidson"><span style="font-weight:400;">AC Davidson</span></a><span style="font-weight:400;"> (Geography &amp; Planning, University of Sheffield) and co-designed and hosted by PhD researcher </span><a href="https://sheffield.ac.uk/geography-planning/phd/candidates/hannah-redman"><span style="font-weight:400;">Hannah Redman</span></a><span style="font-weight:400;">. It was produced thanks to funding from the University of Sheffield's Research Ethics Committee and School of Geography &amp; Planning.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Each episode focuses on ethical research on a particular theme: AI;  researching with elites; decolonial research; historical archives and partnering with marginalised communities. Guests with thematic expertise</span><span style="font-weight:400;"> explain the ethical implications of their academic research to date and what advice they might give to doctoral and early career researchers grappling with similar questions in their fields. Each guest also offers their suggestions for how to improve upon standard ethics procedures. </span></p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>Ethical questions around partnering with  and researching in communities often take many elements for granted - that communities are homogenous, vulnerable, lack real agency and are open to being mined for research data. In this special episode we hear from both Dr Anita Franklin and Dr Beth Fox on the challenges, paradoxes and lessons to be learned from decades of working with communities in institutionally funded interdisciplinary research projects. They share insights on how ethical questions should go beyond procedure and constitute the core of all socially just research. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dr. Anita Franklin who is a writer, educator, radio presenter and playwright with over 30 years of experience at a range of UK Universities (including Leeds and Sheffield) in Sociology, Women’s Studies, Black Studies and Community Development. She uses a variety of methods including creative and narrative approaches to community practice. </p>
<p>Dr Beth Fox, co-leads with this episode’s host AC Davidson, on the interdisciplinary research project Mining for Meaning: a Geoethics of Extractive Industries. Beth is Senior Lecturer in Geography at the University of Salford. Although she has a background in history and linguistics she is now a geologist and geoscientist with broad interests from reconstructing past climate and environmental change through to ethics and inclusion in geoscience. </p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>In archival research, ethical questions of consent, anonymity, power relations and representation are typically absent. In this episode, Dr Sneha Krishnan draws from  extensive experience working with colonial-era archives on gender and childhood in India. Sneha sheds light on how the archive does not in fact consist of ‘dead material’ and warrants the rigor, consideration and reflection that any qualitative research entails, particularly as archives are often sites of ongoing imperialist violence but not widely viewed as such. </p>
<p>Dr. Sneha Krishnan is associate professor in Human Geography at the University of Oxford. As a cultural and historical geographer, Sneha is interested in gender and childhood in postcolonial contexts. Her doctoral research used ethnographic and historical research to focus on the spatialities of risk and safety in the lives of young middle-class women in the South Indian city of Chennai. Building on this, her monograph-in-progress examines hostels for women in historical context as sites where imperial logics endure into the postcolonial present. </p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>Artificial intelligence (AI) has been around for longer than we may think but recent years has seen its rapid expansion into every corner of our lives, including in teaching and research practices in multiple - often controversial - ways. Dr. Denis Newman-Griffis shares how they have grappled with the ethical challenges - and opportunities - AI brings in social research.</p>
<p>Dr Denis Newman-Griffis is senior lecturer in the School of Computer Science at the University of Sheffield. Their research explores how equitable AI and data science may be used to improve human well-being. They have published extensively across these topics in computer science, health informatics, and social science venues, and is leading funded projects in responsible AI practice and disability informatics. </p>

<p>Dr Denis Newman-Griffis is senior lecturer in the School of Computer Science at the University of Sheffield. Their research explores how equitable AI and data science may be used to improve human well-being.

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>2025 has seen a visceral ‘return’ of fascist groups to the UK streets at an unprecedented scale, in open support of extremist anti-migrant, racist and white supremacist stances. The increased attention on the far right goes beyond the UK however and needs further understanding and critical research on a global scale. Dr. Meghan Tinsley shares her knowledge and experience of the ethical dilemmas - and very material risks - of critically researching far right and extremist groups in the contemporary age.
</p>
<p>Dr. Meghan Tinsley is senior lecturer in Sociology at the University of Manchester. Meghan's research brings together themes of nationalism and the memory of empire and recent projects engage with contesting statues, imperial nostalgia, and decolonising the museum. Her work has been published in numerous international journals, including Memory Studies, Current Sociology, Critical Sociology, Postcolonial Studies, and Ethnic and Racial Studies. </p>

                                    <description><![CDATA[<p>Research ethics typically focuses on how to avoid harm when working with vulnerable individuals and groups. But what are the ethical implications involved when ‘studying up’ (Laura Nader, 1972)? In this episode, Dr Pere Ayling shares her experience and expertise on the ethical implications of researching elites in Nigeria and challenging norms around “insider” and “outsider” positions in ethnographic research with elites.  </p>
<p>Dr Pere Ayling is Senior Lecturer at the University of Suffolk’s School of Social Sciences and Humanities. Her research focuses on how class, gender and race as well as dis/abilities intersect to reproduce ‘privilege’ and ‘inequality’ in education and society overall. It has received international  attention including invites to speak at in the UK, Thailand, Spain and the USA among others. </p>
