In an era of open science, how is ‘transparency’ shifting within qualitative research
Within the social sciences, researchers value transparency to assess the scientific rigour of qualitative research. Although transparency in data production and analysis are increasingly commonplace, data access lags behind other disciplines. At GHE we are working to make our qualitative research more transparent, while developing standards for open access that will not be exclusionary for scholars in low-resource contexts.
