AnthropoloJOY is the first long-term qualitative research project of its kind, investigating what joy means in the UK and beyond. Professor Cook shares how the absence of joy during the COVID-19 pandemic prompted the project’s creation, and why it’s time to rethink the way we talk about human emotions. The episode explores the project’s innovative research methods, including: participant observation, micro-phenomenological interviews, and photovoice. Together, these approaches aim to deepen our understanding of joy’s role in strengthening resilience, connection and wellbeing. Featured in this episode: Presenter: Jade Hunter; Guest: Professor Joanna Cook;Producer: Decibelle Creative","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/zpwYIYJzIqxh8Wqq9UBfgbruMVNUyMOPb9ieOB9CIsE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80MmJl/OGRhNzhlY2VjNjA2/ZTg5MzM0YjFlNmJm/MWQ4Yi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
