Through most of our course reading lists and online and offline resources, I have repeatedly been met with urgent calls for behavioural and systemic change. A practice of reflection and reflexivity with a focus on care and solidarity is mentioned by both scholars and practitioners alike as deeply needed and called for. (Geoghegan, G., 2024) Why is this? My wordcount won&#8217;t allow me to further this line of investigation here. If you are interested, please see my blog post from October titled \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How can DevCom students develop \u201cthe necessary criticality\u201d in order to become \u2018good\u2019 practitioners in the field? \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Geoghegan, G., 2024)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My thought is that this kind of learning and practice fits perfectly within a university context, where there is both the time and the safe space to explore one&#8217;s own practice and intentions. In academia, financial and time constraints are often less pressing compared to the practical challenges faced in the field. My professors have put a lot of great and extensive work into the reading list and lectures. However, I would love to see practical pedagogical sessions incorporated into the syllabus. At the very least, having it as an offering before writing our thesis, I believe, would be a good idea. With this in mind, I decided to talk to two people who have spent much time thinking about this subject.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My interviewees<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In-person<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My first interviewee was <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/karen-nordstrom-8667a0b\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Karen Nordstrom<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a Research Affiliate and Policy Program Co-Director for Food Solutions New England. Her fields (!) of expertise lie in Agroecology, pedagogy, participatory evaluation, educational action research and contemplative studies. As we live in the same city, I invited her to my backyard, where I have a DIY sauna and ice plunge. This would be a relaxing and open environment where we could sweat and chat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-204 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/102\/2024\/11\/Screen-Shot-2024-11-11-at-7.12.11-AM-300x184.png\" alt=\"sauna\" width=\"356\" height=\"218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/102\/2024\/11\/Screen-Shot-2024-11-11-at-7.12.11-AM-300x184.png 300w, https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/102\/2024\/11\/Screen-Shot-2024-11-11-at-7.12.11-AM-1024x627.png 1024w, https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/102\/2024\/11\/Screen-Shot-2024-11-11-at-7.12.11-AM-768x470.png 768w, https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/102\/2024\/11\/Screen-Shot-2024-11-11-at-7.12.11-AM-359x220.png 359w, https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/102\/2024\/11\/Screen-Shot-2024-11-11-at-7.12.11-AM.png 1048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 356px) 100vw, 356px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(my D.I.Y sauna)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Zoom interview<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">My second interviewee was Jessica Oddy.

She responded very quickly and was happy to be interviewed. She accommodated our time differences and agreed to interview Zoom. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ahead of the interviews, I researched all the relevant literature accessible from Canvas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Interview<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For my interviewees, I designed three questions that left room for elaboration, speculation, and further investigation. I asked in advance if they would be OK with me recording the interview, and both agreed. I recorded the in-person interview with Nordstrom using my phone&#8217;s recording app, and with Oddy, we used the recording on Zoom.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Both interviews started with me introducing them and their work. I then used the following paragraph as a springboard for the interview, which I had shared beforehand with each of them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cAs we enter the fourth decade of the 21st century, communicating development has become increasingly complex. Amid climate crises, economic inequality, and ideological divides, the concept of &#8220;development&#8221; seems to be unravelling. There are growing concerns about the persistence of colonial mindsets in the sector. How can development practitioners move beyond rhetoric to cultivate a genuinely anti-oppressive, reflexive practice? Could personal reflection and self-awareness help foster a more equitable and just environment within which \u2018good\u2019 development work can be carried out? Could and should this happen <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">before<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> we enter the workforce? If so, what would\/could this look like?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I used the following questions to guide our conversation during the actual interviews, which I also shared before the interview.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Please share a little about your background and personal experiences and how these have come to shape\/ affect you and your work.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> What are your thoughts on incorporating reflexive and reflective practices into the university curriculum, not just theoretical but also practical teachings? What would\/could this look like? What are your thoughts on this?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Is there anything else you would like to share about how development studies can better prepare students for the challenges they will face in the field? Or what does development need to secure its future as a field.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These questions were meant as anchors to keep both myself and the interviewee on track and subject, but I was also keen to allow space for both Nordstrom and Oddy to elaborate and free flow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Post-Interview Reflection<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With Norstrom, it felt less time-pressured as we had set aside a whole evening for the interview (you can\u2019t rush a sauna and ice plunge). It also helped that we had met previously and had energetically <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">hit it off<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. I felt we connected in person quickly, and there was a lovely, relaxed atmosphere.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Recording proved trickier, as my two young children decided they wanted to be part of the experience and kept running around us while we were talking. Luckily for me, Nordstrom, herself a mother, found this endearing rather than annoying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Interviewing Oddy could have been more successful regarding rapport. Two factors led to this: firstly, our meeting on Zoom was the first time we saw and talked to each other, and secondly, online meetings are always less personal than face-to-face meetings. This is because it\u2019s harder to get non-verbal cues from a person through a screen, where the only visible parts are the person&#8217;s head and neck. On top of this, the internet connection wasn\u2019t great, and so it was a bit pixelated. Despite this, Oddy was a great person to talk to, and she is very professional and easygoing.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I was also much more conscious about timings with Oddy than with Nordstrom, as I knew Oddy had a hectic schedule. In my initial email, I promised to take at most 40 min of her time. I hoped this would convince her to accept my request to talk to me. We kept to the time, but I wish we had had more, as I wanted to continue our conversation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the key insights for me during my talk with Oddy, which had been a seed when reaching out to her, was that I wanted to propose to my professors and the university that Oddy and Design for Social Impact come and do some work with us. During the interview, Oddy said, \u201c&#8230;one of the things that I definitely didn&#8217;t have access to when I was in my degree, but it&#8217;s something [that] we do\u2026in our design for social impact course, is\u2026spend\u2026time\u2026doing critical self-reflection, and thinking about\u2026who [actually are you]? What are you bringing to this work\u2026 What are the things that you are actually trained to do? What are the things that you probably shouldn&#8217;t be doing [and also unpacking] why\u2026you want to do development studies?\u201d (Oddy, J., personal communication, November 7, 2024).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reflecting on her words, what feels lacking in my Masters degree is this practical practice as part of our syllabus. What a great resource and skill to receive at university, even for practitioners already working in the field.\u00a0 What we read in books and hear in lectures is essential, but reflecting on how and why we are doing what we do and to what end is equally important. Could there be room for Oddy and the Design for Social Impact Lab team to come and do a pilot at Malm\u00f6 University? In particular, before the thesis, I would find this type of course very beneficial. Food for thought, perhaps?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">References<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Geoghegan, G., (2024, October) How can DevCom students develop \u201cthe necessary criticality\u201d in order to become \u2018good\u2019 practitioners in the field?<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Trouble in Development Paradise and What To Do About It. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/2024\/10\/09\/how-can-devcom-students-develop-the-necessary-criticality-in-order-to-become-good-practitioners-in-the-field\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/wpmu.mau.se\/msm24group7\/2024\/10\/09\/how-can-devcom-students-develop-the-necessary-criticality-in-order-to-become-good-practitioners-in-the-field\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Holstein, J.
