  Walking, thinking and talking: An exploration of the lived experiences and hidden geographies of poverty using walking as a participatory arts methodology.
  Summary

  In Ireland, research that dwells on lived experiences in the context of poverty has been absent in recent years. The research proposed here aims to address this in creative ways. In the first instance, the research will be fully participative, with input from participants invited at all stages. With respect to capturing lived experiences as a form of knowledge, the research will employ walking as a participatory arts methodology - using photographs, sound files, video/film, drawing/mapping to capture meaning. The aim for this research is to connect with lived experiences of poverty in ways that are tangible, visceral and visible.

  Greening the welfare state: How can we do welfare more sustainably? A foundational literature and policy review.
  Summary

  As the environmental crisis deepens and the effects begin to emerge in the form of destructive climate events, more and more nation states have committed to carbon net zero by 2050. Achieving this target will require a reconstitution of economies and societies. This reconstitution will need to occur most forcibly and rapidly in the developed economies of the global north. However, recent geopolitical summits, such as COP 26, have arguably resulted in lacklustre and vague commitments rather than any serious attempts at creating agreement on how to reconstitute the economies of the global north. Research in the context welfare and welfare states in the global north is abundant and diverse. However, research which looks at how the doing of welfare may have to change to become more sustainable remains disparate Aim: To review and synthesise the existing domestic and international literature and policy in this area. Objectives: 1) To develop a comprehensive overview of existing literature and policy 2) To develop a research agenda which will move the project beyond the initial review and toward qualitative fieldwork with key stakeholders. Central research question: What does existing literature and policy say about doing welfare sustainably and what gaps are apparent? Methodology: The methodology for this project will be desk-based and will devolve upon conducting a scoping review and synthesis of key literatures and policy. The purpose of this is to develop a scholarly foundation upon which further purposive qualitative research will be based. Literature will be reviewed using adapted systematic review techniques meaning that a thorough, objective and reproducible search of a range of sources to identify as many relevant scholarly articles as possible will be conducted. This literature will then be synthesized in order to draw out the main conclusions and identify existing gaps. Policy will be examined using a framework developed by Bacchi (2009): 'What's the problem represented to be?' (WPR). This approach, inspired by theoretical insights and research tools first developed by Foucault, works on two propositions: firstly, that it is possible to work backwards from a specific policy proposal(s) to identify what a problem is understood to be, and secondly that the resulting problematisations are key to understanding how these areas of policy are governed. As such, policy documents are not treated as reactive but as productive. This approach to the review of policy documents is useful as it has the potential to unveil how policies which go across both welfare and sustainability define the context in which they are developed and thus unveil their strengths and limitations. Literature and policy published since 2010 will be considered. The reason for this limitation is firstly to make sure that the review is manageable and secondly to capture publications that constitute the most up-to-date evidence.

  In transit? Documenting the lived experiences of welfare, working and caring for one parent families claiming Jobseeker's Transitional Payment.
  Summary

  In recent years, in Ireland, activation measures that aim to promote (re)entry into formal paid employment have become a prominent feature of the policy landscape. One specific feature of this turn toward activation is the necessity for those receiving the One Parent Family Payment (OPFP) to transition onto Jobseekers Transitional Payment (JST) once their youngest child has turned seven. This has been in place since 2013. However, little is known about the experiences of those receiving the payment. This research aims to address this knowledge deficit in a way that will benefit new entrants to the scheme.

  The flats are coming down! Yup the Flats: A sociological exploration of life in the Dolphin House flat complex using arts based creative methods.
  Summary

  Dolphin House and Park is a strong, neighborly and proud community in Dublin's South Inner City. Built in 1957, the complex is made up of 392 flats in 6 blocks. It remains Dublin's largest public housing flat complex while also remaining one of Dublin's most deprived areas. Generations of families live there and now, through the slow process of regeneration, people are being 'de-tenanted' and the flats are coming down. While Dolphin House yet remains standing, this project will seek to understand how regeneration is being experienced and to document life in the flats using arts based creative techniques.
