During spring and autumn of 2025, the research project entered a particularly intensive and significant phase, as the main data collection was carried out. This period involved dynamic and engaging research work, where careful planning, implementation, and continuous reflection were essential to ensure both the quality and the relevance of the collected material.
During the autumn, the project team was also strengthened by the addition of two new members, project planner Sara Hellström and PhD Veronica Salovaara.
Data collection constituted a central part of the research process and laid the foundation for the analyses and results to come. The work was characterized by precision and methodological structure, while also being both stimulating and educational.
Overall, autumn 2025 was both a demanding and inspiring period. The extensive data collection has not only generated rich and varied material but has also led to new insights and raised questions that will guide the forthcoming stages of analysis and research. This phase therefore marks an important milestone in the development of the project and creates strong conditions for future scientific outcomes.
