Participatory Appraisal

Participatory Appraisal is a way of giving people a voice, genuinely allowing them to become part of a decision-making process. It is a form of community engagement which empowers all members of the community, ensuring involvement, particularly of hard-to-reach groups, who do not usually participate in traditional research techniques.

Techniques are accessible to all because they:

• Are taken to where people are
• Ask straight forward questions about complex issues
• Do not assume a high level of literacy
• Are flexible according to time constraints, location and the needs of people they are targeting
• Are lively and fun
