dc.descriptionThe paper critically evaluates conventional social research and advocates for the Participatory Research approach. It explores the interrelationship between researchers and communities, focusing on how this interaction can foster empowerment, creative problem-solving, and social development. The author argues that for research to be truly relevant and effective, it must prioritize community needs and involve local populations in every stage of the research process. The paper suggests new methodologies and frameworks for integrating people’s needs into research planning and execution.
dc.description.abstractThis paper discusses the limitations of conventional social research and advocates for Participatory Research (PR) as a transformative approach. It critiques traditional research methods for being disconnected from the communities they aim to serve and proposes PR as a means for empowering individuals and communities to engage in self-directed development. By focusing on societal interrelations and the role of the researcher as a facilitator rather than a decision-maker, the paper emphasizes the need for community-driven, flexible research methodologies that prioritize local needs, social integration, and practical problem-solving.
