Marie-Hélène teaches qualitative research methods at the Open University of Catalonia (UOC) and is a research consultant in qualitative data analysis. She was educated in Quebec, Beirut and Oxford where she read social work. A clinician by training, she worked as a mental health officer in psychosocial care programs for survivors of war trauma during humanitarian missions for MSF, MDM and UNWRA in East Africa and the Middle East. Her field work led her to research the harm that INGOs can do in the name of doing good when imposing Western paradigms in culturally and politically different contexts. For more than twenty years now, Marie-Hélène has conducted qualitative research and has been using NVivo for a range of qualitative methodologies, including grounded theory, qualitative evidence synthesis, cross-case analysis, qualitative content analysis and thematic analysis. She is a sought-after methodologist, having taught courses and seminars in qualitative data analysis in more than seventy universities and research centres worldwide, including universities in Iran and Qatar. Since 2009, she has been teaching the introductory and advanced courses in qualitative data analysis at the ECPR Methods Schools, both of which won the Cora Maas Award for best courses in the Methods School editions of 2015 and 2019 respectively. She has also been teaching similar courses at the IPSA-NUS Summer School in Singapore since 2017. Marie-Hélène is an NVivo Certified Platinum Trainer and is a member of the NVivo Academy Team who teaches the NVivo online courses for Lumivero. Her methodological interests span from advances in qualitative data analysis, qualitative evidence synthesis, postcolonial epistemology and participatory methodologies.
