In the fourth episode of Speaking of Research, a podcast from the South Coast Doctoral Training Partnership, we meet Kezia Pugh, a doctoral researcher from the University of Brighton whose work explores the experiences of migrant care workers in the UK. Kezia sheds light on how labour exploitation unfolds within the social care sector — from insecure contracts and low pay to more severe forms of abuse — and the crucial role that community groups, campaigners, and trade unions play in resisting these injustices.  We discuss the shift in her methodology toward using existing testimonies and third-sector evidence, the importance of building lasting relationships with practitioners, and how her research aims to support meaningful change both within policy and on the ground.Tune in to hear how Kezia plans to make her research accessible and actionable — from toolkits for campaign groups to forging global connections for lasting impact. You can read a transcript of the conversation here. Find out more about the South Coast Doctoral Training Partnership at southcoastdtp.ac.ukThis is a Research Podcasts production.Credits:Presenter: Catherine McDonald, Research PodcastsGuest: Kezia Pugh, University of BrightonProducer: Krissie Brighty-Glover, Research PodcastsEditor: Anton Jarvis, Research PodcastsTranscripts: Lauren White, Research Podcasts Hosted on Acast.
