Social Anthropology
a key project area is collating stories from the culture- myths, legends, children's tales, folklore, songs etc . We also have a focus on shamans and will be filming shamanic practices (we are funding a PhD in this respect linked to herbal remedies). Sierra Leone, Ghana, Cape Verde, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Bolivia, Peru, Venezuela
