The Workshop on "Qualitative Research in Psychology" took place in Blaubeuren, Germany from October 20-22, 2000.
The meeting was organized by the Center for Qualitative Psychology of the University of Tübingen, Germany.
The purpose of the meeting was to begin a network of qualitative psychologists. Thirty-two participants got to
know each other, presented and discussed their research, discussed potential further developments within the
field of qualitative psychology, and inspired each other with plans for the future. There were psychologists
from Germany, Spain, Latvia, Finland, and the United States, most of whom were working as researchers within
university contexts.
The workshop took place at the Henri-Fabri-Institute, a retreat house of the University of Tübingen in a small town called Blaubeuren.
A comfortable place with beautiful landscape, welcoming staff at the house and delicious food created a friendly
atmosphere for the meeting from the start. The meeting started with an evening opening session in which all
participants briefly introduced themselves and their interests in qualitative psychology. In order to communicate
with each other, all of the participants spoke English. The introductions helped people to seek each other out
afterwards in more informal conversations during the following two days.
