Hello all,
Earlier this week, I have posted a message on the Notice Board section, asking for your assistance with a new academic research project:
“Essay on emigration – participants wanted!”, which can be found following this link:
http://www.belfastforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,71018.0.htm Any contributions and feedback related to this project will be treated as being
anonymous and in confidence, unless you wish for it to be otherwise and give your consent for that.
The new research relates to the coherence between conflict, emigration, unemployment and segregation, and to what degree these factors influence each other.
This will be in relation to an earlier research of mine about the Belfast peace walls, which you can read here:
http://www.belfastforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,66092.0.html An aspect of this new research project will be conducting research on emigration during and after the Troubles.
I am currently looking for people who left Northern Ireland between 1969 and 2017 who would be willing to share their story with me. If you wish to respond, or if you wish to offer assistance with this project, please do so either on this post or via BF private message on my profile page, which can be found here: http://www.belfastforum.co.uk/index.php?action=profile;u=24824 Apart from my own reasons for conducting this new academic research project, if you wished to make your contribution to it, it would be an opportunity for you to both document your own related experiences and to make a small contribution to Belfast and Ulster history.
Thank you.
