Qualitative Data Analysis Workshop
June 28-30 2026

The QDA Workshop is a biennial hands-on workshop focusing on the analysis, interpretation, and writing of qualitative consumer research. The QDA takes place on the days immediately before a Consumer Culture Theory (CCT) Conference. Working with senior mentors, mentees will tackle issues such as interpretive problems, iterative cycling from data/literature/theory, and moving from findings to theoretical contributions. Doctoral students and early career researchers (up to 3 years post-PhD) are invited to apply.
