The Children's Photography Archive C.I.C
My name is Melissa Nolas and I am a visual sociologist, digital archivist, writer, and photographer with considerable experience in communicating and archiving social science research. I am the Director of the Children’s Photography Archive which I also co-founded and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Institute of Advanced Studies at UCL. My current research focuses on childhood publics, children’s cultures and their cultural productions, digital archives, and creative and multimodal ethnographic research. This research is housed under the ongoing Childhood Publics Research Programme. Following twenty years in academia, where I taught and did research including holding two prestigious European Research Council grants, I continue my research programme as an independent scholar.
