Title: | Intercultural qualitative research and Ph.D. students | Contributor(s): | Ditton, Mary (author) | Publication Date: | 2007 | DOI: | 10.1080/14675980601143660 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/3008 | Abstract: | The educational environment for postgraduate health professionals from developing countries in contemporary western universities is an intermediate zone between home and host culture. In this zone, knowledge is shaped through the development of concepts within the limitations of (often) pre-fluent language capacity. It is characterized by the mutual exchange of knowledge between western teachers and their developing-country students, who will return home to leadership roles working with marginalized individuals, communities and populations. This qualitative research aims to improve health education for global health professionals from developing countries, and in so doing it illustrates many of the difficulties and benefits involved in intercultural qualitative research for Ph.D. students. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Intercultural Education, 18(1), p. 41-52 | Publisher: | Routledge | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 1467-5986 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 111799 Public Health and Health Services not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 920599 Specific Population Health (excl.
