The QUAL-LIGHTHOUSE is an interview space from the Advanced Qualitative Training Pathway from the WhiteRose Doctoral Training Partnership. In these informal and fun interviews we like to take our guests through the different rooms of an imaginary lighthouse. 

In these conversations, our Director, Dr Ana Manzano, discusses with other academics their experiences of publishing their first qualitative publications after finishing their PhDs. 

In today's programme, our guest is Dr Roxana Barbulescu, Academic Fellow in Migration Studies at the School of Sociology & Social Policy, University of Leeds. You can read more about Roxana's work here: https://essl.leeds.ac.uk/sociology/staff/4/dr-roxana-barbulescu

Roxana talks about her publication called “Unaccompanied minors, migration control and human rights at the EU’s southern border: The role and limits of civil society activism". You can read it here: https://academic.oup.com/migration/article/4/2/253/2413177?login=true
