International Congress for Qualitative Research & Theory Methodologies

The Institute for Research & Theory Methodologies (RTM), in partnership with the South American Center for Qualitative Research, is pleased to announce the 2023 International Congress for Qualitative Research & Theory Methodologies (ic-QRTM). This virtual event will be held from April 28-30, 2023. 

After two successful conferences, the Classic Grounded Theory International Virtual Conference is becoming the International Congress for Qualitative Research and Theory Methodologies (ic-QRTM). We will continue to host sessions on classic grounded theory and will also include sessions on qualitative research and methods. The expanded focus will provide a forum for sharing and learning about qualitative research and theory methodologies, connecting researcher worldwide, and continuing to develop methodological expertise.

We are currently soliciting abstracts for presentations on research using qualitative methods, methodological workshops and panels, sessions related to classic grounded theory, and posters. This year’s special topic is Emerging from the Pandemic. The pandemic was a significant disruption in life. However, it also opened new opportunities for research. This year’s Congress will also include sessions on how the pandemic has affected the use of research methods and technology and pandemic-related research.
