The International Congress for Qualitative Research and Theory Methodologies (ic-QRTM) is the annual global conference of the Institute for Research and Theory Methodologies (RTM). It brings together researchers, faculty, students, and practitioners from across disciplines and countries to share methodological innovation, engage in scholarly dialogue, and advance qualitative, multi-method, mixed-method, and grounded theory research. ic-QRTM operates as a fully virtual, open-access scholarly dissemination platform. All sessions are publicly available through RTM’s digital archive, extending the educational impact of the conference far beyond the live event.
About ic-QRTM
IC-QRTM is designed to advance methodological excellence and global scholarly engagement in qualitative and multi-method research traditions. Unlike traditional academic conferences, ic-QRTM functions as a continuing digital knowledge ecosystem, where presentations are not limited to a single event window but remain accessible as part of an evolving educational archive. The conference emphasizes:
A Global Movement in Qualitative Research
Qualitative inquiry is not singular. It is shaped by place, culture, relationships, and ways of knowing. Weaving Across Lands & Traditions reflects a commitment to bringing diverse approaches into conversation—honoring both shared purpose and meaningful difference.
This includes methodological traditions grounded in academic disciplines as well as those rooted in community, culture, and lived experience. We recognize that some ways of knowing—particularly Indigenous and relational approaches—are deeply connected to land, story, and community. These approaches are not positioned as additions, but as essential contributions to the broader dialogue of qualitative inquiry. ic-QRTM creates space for multiple ways of knowing to exist alongside one another with respect, care, and intentional listening.
Whether you are presenting, participating, or learning, you are part of a global effort to strengthen qualitative research through connection, mentorship, and shared inquiry.
A month-long, open-access experience connecting qualitative researchers across disciplines, regions, and traditions.
The ic-QRTM Archive serves as a growing global repository of methodological scholarship. This archive functions as an open-access educational resource for researchers, educators, and students worldwide.
ic-QRTM welcomes participation from researchers, educators, institutions, and organizations worldwide.
ic-QRTM is more than an academic conference. It is a global methodological dissemination platform designed to support rigorous, accessible, and collaborative research across disciplines. Through its annual programming and enduring digital archive, ic-QRTM contributes to the development of an international scholarly community committed to methodological innovation and research excellence.
