For three decades, PRIA has not only built capacities of/trained grassroots development workers to incorporate the PR approach in their work, it has used the PR methodology in implementing its own projects. The objective of this paper is to illustrate the application of a gendered approach to using PR in some recent interventions of PRIA. How have the principles and methodology of PR been incorporated into project activities, and were there any PR outcomes in the project? How was people’s knowledge and voice, especially those of women, valued? Did the project entail production of new knowledge, new learnings? Did local actors have a role in production of that knowledge? What use has been made of that knowledge and by whom? The paper begins with a very brief overview of the PR approach and the potential outcomes of adopting this approach. The next section describes the PR methodology and suggestive gendered outcomes in four recent initiatives undertaken by PRIA. The last section summarises the PR outcomes from the four initiatives.Item Second national inter professional dialogue on participaroty development and participatory research, April 18-24, 1997(PRIA & ASSWI, 1997-04) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA); Association of Schools of Social Work in India (ASSWI)Item What is participatory research?(Social Science and Medicine, 1995) Cornwall, Andrea; Jewkes, RachelResearch strategies which emphasize participation are increasingly used in health research Breaking the linear me of conventional research, participatory research focuses on a process of sequential reflection and action, carried out with and by local people rather than on them. Local knowledge and perspectives are not or only acknowledged but form the basis for research and planning. Many of the methods used in participatory research are drawn from mainstream disciplines and conventional research itself involves varying degrees of participation. The key difference between participatory and conventional methodologies lies in the location of power in the research process. We review some of the participatory methodologies which are currently being popularized in health research, focusing on the issue of control over the research process. Participatory research raises personal, professional and political challenges which go beyond the bounds of the production of information. Problematizing 'participation', we explore the challenges and dilemmas of participatory practice.Item Participatory research as a contribution to cultural reconstruction(1980) Tandon, RajeshItem Participatory Research Network in Asia(1980) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)
