<strong>English</strong><br />It is believed that action research has been numerously implemented for a long time in Indonesia. Nevertheless, it can be generally stated that its implementation was relatively lack in accommodating farmer’s aspiration. As a result, a method of participatory action research needs to be recommended. This article aims to review the essence and urgency of participatory action research focused on rural community-based agricultural empowerment. At least, there are three pillars of participatory action research towards community empowerment, namely participation, facilitation, and intervention. However, the implementation of participatory action research is time-consuming and depends on community’s initiative in determining needs priority. Interactive participation and creativity through participation as well as democracy-based facilitation and intervention should be carried out. Hence, it is implied that the development of community’s aspiration (button-up approach) still requires top-down approach, which is free from paternalistic attribute.     <br /><br /><br /><strong>Indonesian</strong><br />Kaji tindak merupakan jenis penelitian yang cukup banyak dan telah lama dilakukan di Indonesia, namun secara umum dapat dikatakan bahwa pelaksanaannya masih kurang mengakomodasi aspirasi petani. Oleh karena itu, penggunaan metode kaji tindak yang partisipatif perlu direkomendasikan. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mereview esensi dan urgensi kaji tindak partisipatif dengan titik tumpu pemberdayaan masyarakat khususnya di wilayah perdesaan berbasis sumberdaya pertanian. Paling tidak ada tiga pilar dalam kaji tindak pemberdayaan masyarakat, yaitu partisipasi, fasilitasi, dan intervensi. Akan tetapi, implementasi kaji tindak dalam pemberdayaan masyarakat memerlukan waktu, tergantung inisiatif masyarakat dalam menentukan keperluan prioritas mereka. Partisipasi secara interaktif dan kreatif serta fasilitasi dan intervensi yang berpedoman pada prinsip demokrasi perlu dijalankan. Implikasinya, pengembangan aspirasi masyarakat tetap membutuhkan upaya yang bersifat pendekatan dari atas namun terbebas dari sikap paternalistik.

IntroductionWith rapid urbanisation in low-income and middle-income countries, health systems are struggling to meet the needs of their growing populations. Community-based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) in Ghana have been effective in improving maternal and child health in rural areas; however, implementation in urban areas has proven challenging. This study aims to engage key stakeholders in urban communities to understand how the CHPS model can be adapted to reach poor urban communities.Methods and analysisA Participatory Action Research (PAR) will be used to develop an urban CHPS model with stakeholders in three selected CHPS zones: (a) Old Fadama (Yam and Onion Market community), (b) Adedenkpo and (c) Adotrom 2, representing three categories of poor urban neighbourhoods in Accra, Ghana. Two phases will be implemented: phase 1 (‘reconnaissance phase) will engage and establish PAR research groups in the selected zones, conduct focus groups and individual interviews with urban residents, households vulnerable to ill-health and CHPS staff and key stakeholders. A desk review of preceding efforts to implement CHPS will be conducted to understand what worked (or not), how and why. Findings from phase 1 will be used to inform and co-create an urban CHPS model in phase 2, where PAR groups will be involved in multiple recurrent stages (cycles) of community-based planning, observation, action and reflection to develop and refine the urban CHPS model. Data will be managed using NVivo software and coded using the domains of community engagement as a framework to understand community assets and potential for engagement.Ethics and disseminationThis study has been approved by the University of York’s Health Sciences Research Governance Committee and the Ghana Health Service Ethics Review Committee. The results of this study will guide the scale-up of CHPS across urban areas in Ghana, which will be disseminated through journal publications, community and government stakeholder workshops, policy briefs and social media content. This study is also funded by the Medical Research Council, UK.

Abstrak Keberhasilan destinasi wisata tidak akan terlepas dari perencanaan yang dilakukan di awal. Kebutuhan masyarakat lokasi destinasi wisata menjadi hal yang pertama dan utama mengingat bahwa suatu program berkaitan erat dengan potensi dan masalah. Sehingga tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk melakukan analisis kebutuhan masyarakat desa Sidoluhur sebagai dasar dalam perencanaan program permberdayaan masyarakat. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Participatory Action Research (PAR) melalui 3 strategi yaitu: sosialisasi, pelaksanaan, serta monitoring dan evaluasi program. Data dikumpulkan melalui teknik observasi, Focused Group Discussion (FGD), wawancara dan teknik dokumentasi. Berdasarkan strategi yang dilakukan kemudian dapat disimpulkan bahwa permasalahan utama yang dihadapi oleh masyarakat yaitu terkait dengan masih rendahnya wawasan masyarakat terkait dengan pengelolaan destinasi wisata dan belum semua elemen masyarakat aktif berpartisipasi. Berdasarkan hasil kebutuhan tersebut, maka upaya pengembangan diperlukan pembinaan secara berkala dan sinergi dengan program pemerintah agar dapat saling berkolaborasi. Abstract The success of a tourist destination will not be separated from the planning done at the beginning. The needs of the tourist destination location community are first and foremost considering that a program is closely related to potential and problems. So the purpose of this research is to analyze the needs of the community in Sidoluhur village as a basis for planning community empowerment programs. The study was conducted using the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method through 3 strategies: socialization, implementation, and program monitoring and evaluation. Data collected through observation techniques, Focused Group Discussion (FGD), interviews and documentation techniques. Based on the strategy carried out then it can be concluded that the main problems faced by the community are related to the still low level of community insight related to the management of tourist destinations and not all elements of society actively participate. Based on the results of these needs, the development effort needed for regular development and synergy with government programs in order to collaborate with each other.

<p><span>Despite preference for community-based living, large numbers of people with psychiatric disabilities live in nursing homes throughout the US. Community-based services for this population are limited by public policy and service system barriers. This paper summarizes these barriers and presents the second phase of a participatory action research project jointly developed by university-based researchers and two Centers for Independent Living. A qualitative case study methodology was used to understand the experiences of three individuals with psychiatric disabilities reintegrating into the community from nursing homes. Findings revealed themes of social isolation, participation in virtual communities, variability of impairment experiences and unmet needs for community supports. In addition to thematic findings, action products were generated for the benefit of community partners. These products included national best practice resources and a needs assessment survey tool. Study findings and products point to specific systems change and policy recommendations to better support community reintegration for this population. These recommendations are discussed in light of U.S. healthcare reform and broader disability advocacy efforts.</span></p>

The purpose of this article is twofold: to explore the entry process in community-based research when researching sensitive topics; and to suggest a framework for entry that utilises the values of participatory action research (PAR). The article draws on a collaborative community-university research study that took place in the Waterloo and Toronto regions of Ontario, Canada, from 2005–2010. The article emphasises that community entry is not only about recruitment strategies for research participants or research access to community but it is also concerned with the ongoing engagement with communities during various stages of the research study. The indicator of success is a well established and trusted community-researcher relationship. This article first examines this broader understanding of entry, then looks at how community research entry can be shaped by an illustrative framework, or guide, that uses a combination of participatory action research (PAR) values and engagement strategies. Key words: research entry, community engagement, participatory action research, mental health and cultural diversity

Governments have supported popular education initiatives in the past. And so have community organisations and social movements. But the spaces for popular education have been shrinking in recent times, as part of the impact of neo-liberal globalisation. Public services have been increasingly subjected to pressures from market forces, pressures that have impacted on community-based education and lifelong learning. Despite these wider pressures, educators have continued to find spaces and places for popular education and participatory action research, however, working across sectors in a variety of contexts. The chapter includes examples of innovatory approaches in both formal settings and informal settings (such as libraries and community centres) including examples from both Northern and Southern American contexts.
