Abstract

For several years, Christian Chiza has conducted research for an international NGO, during which time his fieldwork respondents have frequently asked what happens to the data. Project design within these organisations, and universities in the global North, often lacks a process for feeding back results to the communities where the research was conducted. This raises questions about power imbalances embedded into international research practices and the ethics of who benefits from the production of knowledge.
