Using digital qualitative diaries to understand how socioeconomic disadvantage shaped young people’s academic experiences and mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic
A Participatory Evaluation of an Urban Garden Project in Ecuador
For the past years, Ecuador has been transitioning away from a hospital-based model of mental healthcare to one that is community-centred.

Qualitative Digital Diary Methods
Qualitative digital diary methods are a promising tool for capturing participants' experiences in their own words and over time.

The Ember Mental Health pro…

This qualitative study was conducted to investigate f…
