Summary
Field research is a messy business. From planning logistics and negotiating access to places and people, through looking after your own safety, to coping with the complexities of constructing knowledge from the world-in-process; dealing with the unexpected is an inevitable part of fieldwork.

We draw on Olalekan’s and Jen’s own experiences of research, and Pauline’s research interviews with geographers from around the world about their experiences of field research.
