DESCRIPTION:*Call for Papers: Graduate Workshop on Ethnographic Approaches
  in Asian Heritage Studies*\n\nFollowing the discussion during our Graduat
 e Roundtable in November 2024\, the Asia’s Archaeology and Heritage Grou
 p invites submissions for a workshop dedicated to exploring the applicatio
 n of ethnographic methods in heritage studies within Asian contexts. This 
 workshop aims to examine how ethnographic approaches\, inherently dynamic 
 and interdisciplinary\, can be effectively used in the study of heritage i
 n Asia. We seek to address how human-centred research methods\, such as in
 terviews\, participant observation\, and oral history\, can be adapted to 
 navigate the complexities of engaging with people and communities in diver
 se contexts\, and how these adaptations may lead to unique insights or out
 comes.\n \nWe welcome papers that engage with\, but are not limited to\, t
 he following aspects:\n·         Theoretical and methodological innovatio
 ns in ethnographic approaches to heritage studies.\n·         Case studie
 s showcasing the application of  ethnographic methods in Asian heritage co
 ntexts\, particularly those focusing on social interactions and community 
 engagement.\n·         Challenges and adaptations in conducting ethnograp
 hic research within the unique social fabrics of Asian cultures.\n·      
    The impact of social traditions and interaction norms on ethnographic r
 esearch and how they shape the outcomes of heritage studies.\n\n \nThis wo
 rkshop aims to provide a platform for graduate students (Master’s and Ph
 D levels) to discuss their application and reflection on human-centred res
 earch methods in Asian settings\, fostering a deeper understanding of how 
 these methods can be tailored to suit the diverse and rich social landscap
 es of the region.\n \n*Submission Guidelines*\n\nPlease submit an abstract
