Abstract

Background: The world today is fraught with numerous perils, particularly due to frequent epidemics that inordinately impact people’s lives. Given such ongoing global crises, universities need to take into account the challenges that their research activities may encounter. Therefore, we aimed to conduct a thorough and rapid study of the causes and consequences of emergencies to overcome the methodological challenges that such crises impose. Methods: A literature review. Results: The effects of these social and epidemiological complications on academic and research practices have made scholars adapt their research approaches to the challenging and restrictive conditions of emerging societies in the postmodern epidemic and risk society. This has accentuated the importance of innovative approaches like team-based qualitative research. Conclusion: This research introduces a team-based, rapid qualitative approach to deliver timely, useful, and pertinent findings. It accentuates the feasibility of employing swift and urgent methods in challenging epidemic settings.
