Abstract

LECHNER, Elsa. Collaborative research: contributions from a study with immigrants in the city of Coimbra. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2015, vol.24, n.44, pp.223-231. ISSN 0104-7043.  https://doi.org/10.2015/jul.dez.v24n44.0016.

This article discusses collaborative research, revisiting the genealogy of studies carried out in the social sciences and humanities that contributed to the definition of this concept. In particular, it analyzes the contributions of authors who played key roles in the development of participatory and collaborative forms of inquiry. Before concluding, the article takes a look at a project undertaken with immigrants at the Center of Social Studies at the University of Coimbra, which centered around biographical workshops/circles of voices involving male and female participants of ten different nationalities, representing diverse generations, religions, and educational backgrounds.
