Places of power for deaf youth in Moscow

On February 29, the Museum of Moscow hosted a lesson in the Deaf Teens laboratory of the Kaskad project school. The lesson was dedicated to the researches and was conducted by Nikita Bolshakov, IL SIR senior researcher.

The Deaf Teens laboratory team studies how art and research of the city and residents are connected, what are the places of attraction for the deaf and hard of hearing in Moscow, how the experience of living in the city develops, how different formats of interaction exist in the same urban environment: places for study and recreation, places for  inner experiences and collective adventures.

During the lesson, deaf teenagers got acquainted with the key principles and stages of scientific research, learned about the specifics of applying quantitative and qualitative sociological methods, and also developed and presented the design of their own research on places of power for deaf youth in Moscow.

The results of the research will be presented in September in the form of a map and a zin at the final exhibition of the laboratory, which will be held at the Museum of Moscow
