Multidimensional Vulnerability in Research Ethics: Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic

Deniz Pelek, CASAS’ member, has published this article with Eva Østergaard-Nielsen & Vladimir Bortun in UAB Divulga.

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has posed several challenges for conducting research in social sciences, including ethical issues. While all humans share inherent physical and mental vulnerability, factors like poverty, racial discrimination, and limited healthcare access create additional layers. Researchers from the MIGRADEMO project argue for the concept of multidimensional vulnerability, which must be considered at every stage of the research process.
