    African Regional Workshop on Participatory Research, Mzumbe, 2nd - 7th July, 1979 – Group Discussion on Case Studies
    (1979-07-07)
    This report documents the group discussions held during the African Regional Workshop on Participatory Research in Mzumbe, 2nd - 7th July, 1979. The discussions focused on the composition, challenges, and strategies for revitalizing Contact Teams (CCTs). The report presents insights from different groups regarding the inclusion of members from the poorest communities, and the tensions between church bureaucracies and community research. The report addresses key issues such as class struggles, staffing, transportation, and the pressure to produce projects before adequate research has been conducted. The role of village pastors and evangelists in these teams, their similarities with other villagers, and the decision-making regarding the involvement of different religious groups in research are also discussed.
