Item Training on participatory research methodologies. September 18-22, 2017(2017-09-22) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)Item Decolonization of knowledge, epistemicide, participatory research, and higher education(UCL Press, 2017) Hall, Budd L; Tandon, RajeshThis article raises questions about what the word ‘knowledge’ refers to. Drawn from some 40 years of collaborative work on knowledge democracy, the authors suggest that higher education institutions today are working with a very small part of the extensive and diverse knowledge systems in the world. Following from de Sousa Santos, they illustrate how Western knowledge has been engaged in epistemicide, or the killing of other knowledge systems. Community-based participatory research is about knowledge as an action strategy for change and about the rendering visible of the excluded knowledges of our remarkable planet. Knowledge stories, theoretical dimensions of knowledge democracy and the evolution of community-based participatory research partnerships are highlighted.Item Advancing environmental health science research and translation in India through community based participatory research (CBPR) workshop February 26th -28th, 2019(2019-02-28) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA); College of Public HealthItem An epidemiological approach to participatory research in evaluation (an ongoing study)(0000) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)Item Society for participatory research in Asia(1986) Tandon, RajeshItem Participatory research Project: A note on the activities of the Asian region(0000) Tandon, RajeshItem Teaching participatory research: Making higher education participatory and relevant(2010) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)he paper argues that inclusion of Participatory Research (PR) in the curricula of institutions of higher education will facilitate its actual practice, thereby contributing to new forms of knowledge production and social change. Participatory Research (PR),as an alternative to dominant social science research methodology and an approach for social change, gained recognition in the 70s. More than three decades later, however, much more is needed for the inclusion of PR in the formal higher education system. This paper highlights the status of PR in institutions of higher education in India; it analyses the viability of its inclusion and presents the challenges it faces across social science disciplines, in degree level courses, as well as in doctoral research. Drawing upon national and international experiences ,the paper explores ways by which higher education institutions in India can include PR in the curriculum and teaching practices .Item Workshop report teaching of participatory research, 4-5 August 2005(2005-08) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)Item What is participatory research?(Social Science and Medicine, 1995) Cornwall, Andrea; Jewkes, RachelResearch strategies which emphasize participation are increasingly used in health research Breaking the linear me of conventional research, participatory research focuses on a process of sequential reflection and action, carried out with and by local people rather than on them. Local knowledge and perspectives are not or only acknowledged but form the basis for research and planning. Many of the methods used in participatory research are drawn from mainstream disciplines and conventional research itself involves varying degrees of participation. The key difference between participatory and conventional methodologies lies in the location of power in the research process. We review some of the participatory methodologies which are currently being popularized in health research, focusing on the issue of control over the research process. Participatory research raises personal, professional and political challenges which go beyond the bounds of the production of information. Problematizing 'participation', we explore the challenges and dilemmas of participatory practice.Item Participatory training: Philosophy and perspective(0000) Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA)
