The Tactical Dialogues of New Tactics are hosted monthly and focus on a particular tactic or issue-area. These dialogues are led by featured resource practitioners with experience to share
Join New Tactics for an online Tactical Dialogue on Participatory Research for Action from 17 to 23 November 2010. Participatory action research is research which involves all relevant parties in actively examining together current action (which they experience as problematic) in order to change and improve it. Those to be helped by the research process, determine the purposes and outcomes of their own inquiry. (Wadsworth, Y. 1998)
Participatory research can create credible and critical documentation at the grassroots level. Not only can the information be utilized in advocacy and lobbying efforts, the research process itself can serve to create a network of activists, informing organizations working on issues that impact study participants, and directly benefiting the people themselves. This dialogue will be a space to share resources, challenges, approaches and ideas for using participatory research for social change.
Participatory research is about “connecting victims of human rights violations to the information they need to become active defenders of their right and to develop creative solutions to human rights challenges.” (Chubashini Suntharalingam, Research for Action)
This dialogue will be a space to share resources, challenges, approaches and ideas for using participatory research for social change.
