DESCRIPTION
A talk as part of the 'Lifting the lid on ethnographic research' for The Research Thing. http://www.meetup.com/researchthing/events/150350262/ In Buckinghamshire, a large partnership of state and voluntary agencies formed to find a new way of working together around families in crisis. They knew that despite a common mission to support vulnerable families, diverse agency priorities across the group had led to siloed working and fractured support. We spent extended time with ten families to see the world from their perspective. To deepen our understanding, we used visual tools to map local areas, social relationships, timelines and moments of crisis.We discovered families held in stasis by services, rather than finding stability they could build on. As a result services were struggling to support families develop their own positive responses to crisis. Presenting rich pictures of real families sparked different kinds of conversation and actions across the partnership. Co-designed solutions based on this research are currently being tested and implemented.
