Nadia Bashir BA (Hons), MA
Senior Research Fellow
Summary
Nadia has over 20 years of experience in qualitative research and specialises in engaging participants from vulnerable and hard-to-reach groups, including people with multiple and complex needs, young people with learning disabilities/difficulties, and people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds. She has specific expertise in co-producing qualitative research and evaluation activities with seldom heard groups, working closely with clients and service users/beneficiaries to enable capacity building in research and evaluation to better meet organisational and individual needs.
About
Nadia is currently leading an evaluation to assess the impact of the Humber Learning Consortium’s This-Ability programme (2018-2024) - aimed at finding young people with a disability, learning disability/difficulty or a long-term health/mental health condition sustainable employment. The evaluation is co-produced with people with lived experience of these conditions working closely with experienced researchers from CRESR. Prior to this, Nadia led a learning partnership involving CRESR, BAC-IN CIC, and the Lankelly Chase Foundation, exploring culturally specific responses to drug and alcohol recovery and multiple disadvantage. Since 2014, she has designed and delivered Peer Researcher training to almost 20 cohorts from various projects. Whilst working at CRESR, Nadia has worked with a wide range of clients including, the National Health Service (NHS), the Big Lottery Fund, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), and the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF).
Research interests/PhD supervision
- Co-production in research and evaluation
- Exploring different methodological approaches to engaging those groups that are seldom heard
- Researching the lived experiences of those seldom heard, in particular, BAME experiences of multiple disadvantage in various aspects of their lives
If you are interested in undertaking a PhD in these areas, please get in touch with Nadia and she will be happy to discuss any ideas you have.
