Since then, we’ve worked with more than 2,000 scholars on over 1,000 studies, collecting nearly 350,000 data points from participants across 42 countries in Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and South America. This work has given us firsthand experience with the practical challenges of participant recruitment, cross-cultural research, sampling, translation, data quality, and conducting research across different populations. Here, we share what we’ve learned along the way. Explore practical advice, research insights, case studies, and stories from our work helping researchers conduct high-quality research beyond the West.
