dc.description.abstractThis document explores the participatory research initiatives led by the Institute of Adult Education and Extra-Mural Studies, Fourah Bay College, University of Sierra Leone, focusing on Theatre for Development as a tool for education and community mobilization. The outreach programs conducted between 1986-1988 include training workshops for development and extension workers, emphasizing community-based dramatizations for addressing pressing socio-economic challenges. Key programs, such as SWASH (Safe Water and Adequate Sanitation for Health), are highlighted as action-oriented responses to health and sanitation issues identified through community participatory research. Outcomes include the boxing of a spring to reduce water-borne diseases and plans for constructing wells and pit latrines in subsequent phases. The document underscores the effectiveness of participatory approaches in promoting rural development and adult education.
