Abstract
This paper presents the reflections from five prominent disaster scholars and practitioners on the opportunities and challenges associated with research following disasters, and explores the importance of ethics in disaster research. It is based on the conversations that took place on Disasters: Deconstructed Podcast livestream on the 11th of June 2021.
The prominent themes in this conversation include ethical approaches to research, how we–as disaster researchers and practitioners–collaborate, engage, and cooperate, and whose voices are centred in a post-disaster research context. The conversation contributes to ongoing discussions around the conduct and practice of disaster research.
