    (ActionAid Bangladesh; Campaign for Popular Education (CAMPE); Supported by ODA, 1994) Archer, D.; Rahman, M.
    This report documents the International Workshop on PRA, Literacy, and Empowerment held from November 14 to 17, 1994, in Manikganj, Bangladesh. Hosted by ActionAid Bangladesh and CAMPE, the workshop focused on the REFLECT (Regenerated Freirean Literacy through Empowering Community Techniques) approach, which integrates Freirean theory with Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) methods to enhance literacy and empowerment among adult learners. The workshop included simulations, presentations, and discussions on topics such as gender, literacy, post-literacy, and methods for scaling up REFLECT. Key recommendations and follow-up plans are outlined, including future training courses and network development to further the methodology’s adoption.
