ANNEX 3. Participatory methods and approaches: sharing our concerns and looking to the future
- A LABEL WITHOUT SUBSTANCE?
A workshop on developments in the theory and practice of Participatory
Rural Appraisal was held from May 9-13, 1994 at the Institute
of Development Studies (UK). As part of this process, a small
group of PRA practitioners and trainers sat together to discuss
and seek ways to address growing concerns about quality assurance,
cooption, and ethics surrounding the use of PRA. Following a brainstorming
session on why quality assurance was felt to be so crucial at
this stage, the group developed a set of basic principles/indicators
by which "good practice" could be identified. Below
follows a summary of these discussions.
