Online resources: Bergh's anthropological PhD study was situated in a post-conflict setting in Sierra Leone several years after a civil war there had ended. Many people had suffered and gained impairments both directly and indirectly as a consequence of war, and the study aimed to find out how they were being reintegrated back into society and what their needs were. In order to do this, a qualitative mixed-methods and multi-sited approach to fieldwork was used that enabled the collection of detailed information from a wide variety of sources and people, whilst still being strong enough to stand as a case study.
