    Participatory Evaluation in Africa: A Review of Organisational Trends and Issues
    (0000) Annorbah-Sarei, A.J.
    This paper explores participatory evaluation methodologies in Africa, analyzing organizational trends and issues from the 1960s to recent times. It highlights the historical weakening of self-reliance among African communities under colonial rule and traces the resurgence of collective self-engagement driven by traditional animators and modern African leaders. The work examines the role of grassroots, institutional, and structural initiatives in promoting participatory development and evaluates various participatory methodologies—collaboration, community development, and empowerment. The study underscores the need for culturally rooted participatory evaluation approaches, drawing on oral traditions and local practices, while addressing the challenges of power dynamics and sustainable self-reliance.
