The Participation Resource Centre comprises the joint collection of the IDS Participation, Power and Social Change Team and the International Institute for Environment and Development. The Centre provides public access to over 6000 books, documents, journals and videos.

Covering and wide range of practical and theoretical subjects, these resources include participatory methods, approaches and critiques from throughout the world, many of which are not available in libraries. The Centre's database can be searched online, providing abstracts, links and sources, and we operate a limited document delivery service for requests from the South. We are open every weekday and visitors are welcome.
