Urban forced migrants in Kampala: Methodologies and ethical and psychological issues Forced Migration Online (24276783) Migration, asylum and refugee law FORCED MIGRATION ONLINE RESEARCH FACT-FINDING MISSIONS RESEARCH INTERVIEWS ETHICS This paper tries to outline some of the most common and relevant issues that researchers might run into when undertaking fieldwork in the area of forced migration, specifically in urban settings. In particular, this article focuses on preliminary issues, such as decisions on how to collect samples and how to gain entry to the sample group. It also concentrates on ethical issues concerning forced migrants in general as well as situations in which forced migrants are mixed with the local population, which need to be carefully addressed by researchers during fieldwork in order not to endanger the often precarious safety of their sample members. Finally, it provides specific information about the psychological stress that researchers can experience after prolonged contact with forced migrants. 2026-09-30T11:51:11Z Text Online resource 10.25446/oxford.33357216.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/online_resource/Urban_forced_migrants_in_Kampala_Methodologies_and_ethical_and_psychological_issues/33357216 CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
