The holistic bricolage research approach and disaster-risk reduction

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: This paper calls for scholars to consider and reflect on the potential advantages of the application of a holistic bricolage approach within a wider range of research contexts including disaster-risk reduction (DRR). We introduce holistic bricolage as a sixth dimension of bricolage and bricoleur expertise in addition to the other already established five dimensions. We propose holistic bricolage as a practical, ‘full’ approach applied from project creation to write up, which is capable of supporting transdisciplinary research in settings with diverse data and complex social interactions, such as those found in disaster-risk reduction research.
