Looking for Angola: A Multidisciplinary Effort
The Looking for Angola team members respresent several academic disciplines and bring varied skills, experiences and backgrounds to the research. Cross disciplinary (or multidisciplinary) research is useful because each discipline has strengths and limitations, in what it can or cannot tell us about a given research problem. So each member of the Looking for Angola team approaches the research from a different point of view. When taken as a whole, their various results will give us a more complete understanding of Angola and its inhabitants.
We sat down with each team member to discuss why the search for Angola is important, what the story of Angola can teach us today, and what information their particular research can, and cannot, tell us about the lost community. We hope you will enjoy reading about what each team member hopes to contribute to the search for Angola!
