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 training on Coastal Research Study, Phase II: At all India Catholic Union Federation Hall, Madras, October 11–13, 1992(1992-10) Coastal Poor Development Action Network India (COPDANET); Society for Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)Item Item Looking back, looking forward-Reflections on the International Participatory Research Network(Forests, Trees and People Newsletter, 1999) Hall, Budd LItem Fifteen years of Participatory-Research-in-Asia(Participation & Governance, 1997) Tandon, RajeshWe have just completed fifteen years of our experience as PRIA. The seeds of this organisation were sown by the early work on participatory research during the late 70s. That experience provided the philosophical basis for our work: Knowledge is Power. This perspective inspired the early activities we undertook by promoting a number of initiatives which emphasised recognition and articulation of indigenous popular knowledge in the fields of education, health-care, natural resource management etc. Over the years, different ways of expressing that philosophy gained ascendancy in PRIA's work. Today, our work in strengthening Panchayati Raj Institutions as mechanisms of local self-governance is its most explicit expression. We are using methods of organising and promoting the learning of leadership in local bodies to play their rightful role as self-governing institutions. Special emphasis is being placed on learning and empowerment of new leadership in these institutions: women and socioeconomically weaker sections of society.Item Unity in Diversity: The Future of Adult Education in Asia and the South-Pacific Region(1991-12) Tandon, RajeshItem Reflections on the Fifth UNESCO World Conference on Adult Education: Hamburg ,1997(Asian-South Pacific Bureau of Aduit Education, 1997-08) Tandon, Rajesh
