SOUSA, Emilene Leite de. ETHNOGRAPHY WITH CHILDREN IN TIMES OF PANDEMIC: AN ETHICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL REFLECTION. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2022, vol.52, e09122.  Epub Sep 08, 2022. ISSN 1980-5314.  https://doi.org/10.1590/198053149122.

This article is concerned with the ethical and methodological aspects of research carried out during 2020, which investigated the children’s representation of Covid-19 in the Brazilian state of Maranhão. It queries the fabrication of an ethnography at a distance (with the children’s parents as mediators), taking digital technologies as a means to access children and their narratives through short interviews, audio recordings, and drawings. Adhering to social distancing rules, without access to direct observation, it raises issues regarding the process of obtaining information and transforming it into data through systematization and analysis.

Keywords : ETHNOGRAPHY; CHILDREN; PANDEMIC; DRAWINGS.
