About: The 2020 Qualitative Research Consultants Association (QRCA) conference is focused on the soul of qualitative research: humanity. Its theme, “Keep Qual Human” is a rallying cry, calling on researchers and strategists to explore how we navigate the rapidly-changing world of qualitative research. How do we stay true to the mission of understanding humans while embracing advances in technology? How can the technology of today help us empathize with people? The 2020 QRCA conference is co-chaired by WE’s Jay Picard.
