Participatory Methods Website

Published on 1 June 2013

The participatorymethods.org website provides resources on a range of methods for inclusive social development.

It explains what participatory methods are, where and how they have been used, their problems and potentials and the debates about them. The focus is on participatory approaches to strategic analysis and programme design, monitoring and evaluation. It also includes resources on participatory learning, research and communication in organisations, networks and communities.

The approaches found on the website are rooted in the perspectives, wisdom and efforts of the citizens of this planet. Whether your concern is social change or small group action, and whether you are a development worker, activist, researcher or interested individual, we offer you resources that we trust will be useful and thought-provoking.
