dc.description.abstractThis document covers the proceedings of a regional workshop held in Mzumbe, Tanzania, focused on the use of Participatory Research (PR) as a training process within youth development projects. Marja-Liisa Swantz's paper, presented by Joussef Kassim, advocates for PR as more than research—serving as a model that reveals ideological tensions within development practices. The workshop explores PR's role in exposing contradictions in socio-political structures and critiques its application, suggesting that benefits often favor researchers over local communities. Discussions include critiques from Tanzanian researchers, exploring the relationship between PR, socialism, and community agency in research.
