🌍 Mixed Methods Research Online Workshop

Bridging Numbers and Narratives | Design with Depth. Publish with Purpose.

The International Institute of Migration and Development (IIMAD) is launching its flagship Mixed Methods Research Online Workshop — a dynamic, five-session program designed for researchers, doctoral scholars, and development professionals seeking to enhance their methodological expertise. This workshop offers a rare opportunity to master the integration of qualitative insight and quantitative rigour in research that drives meaningful impact.

🔍 Foundations to Frontiers: Build a Mixed Methods Mindset
Begin with a deep dive into the philosophical underpinnings and historical evolution of mixed methods research. Understand how and when to combine qualitative and quantitative approaches, and explore core principles such as triangulation, complementarity, and integration. Discover how mixed methods can illuminate complexity in ways that single-method approaches cannot.

🛠 Tools for Today’s Researcher: From Fieldwork to Frameworks
Gain hands-on familiarity with essential techniques in both qualitative and quantitative research—surveys, experiments, interviews, focus groups, ethnography, thematic coding, and statistical analysis. Learn how to align your data collection strategies with your research questions and choose appropriate sampling and sequencing designs for maximum clarity and coherence.

🔗 Integration in Action: Designing Coherent, Impactful Studies
Move beyond parallel methods to meaningful integration. Learn to weave data together using joint displays, thoughtful sequencing (concurrent and sequential), and integrated analysis frameworks. Whether you’re planning a dissertation, evaluation study, or policy-focused report, this session will give you the tools to create compelling and cohesive mixed-methods designs.

📚 From Manuscript to Publication: Write What Matters
Conclude with a masterclass on structuring and publishing mixed methods research. Discover how to present integrated findings with clarity, structure your methodology and discussion sections effectively, and identify the right journals and platforms for your work. Learn what editors look for—and how to make your mixed methods manuscript stand out.

🎓 Join us to master the art and science of mixed methods research.
Spots are limited. Ideal for social scientists, public health researchers, policy analysts, and development practitioners aiming to produce robust, publishable, and policy-relevant research.
