Since 2001 a team of academic researchers and medical practitioners have been collaborating with Yarrabah Men?s Health Group leaders to implement a participatory action research (PAR) process designed to support the men to (in their own words) ?take their rightful place? in contemporary Australian society. The formative stages of the PAR process and progress over the first 12 months have been documented in previous papers in order to provide much needed direction for others interested in undertaking similar community action-oriented research (Tsey, Patterson, Whiteside, Baird, & Baird, 2002; Tsey et al., 2004). The present paper addresses the need for innovative evaluation methodologies to enable participants in the PAR process to monitor and reinforce the small improvement they are making towards achieving their goals, and to maintain their vision for the future. Participation in men?s group activities resulted in modest but significant change in the men?s personal development and growth and in their response to family responsibilities. Men had the opportunity to dialogue and reflect on their gender responsibilities such as housework, which constitutes a major source of conflict in the family. Several men also gained the confidence and motivation to stand for local government. The study highlights the value of demystifying and making research more relevant to people?s day-to-day living experiences.

New Knowledge

Malang City has an annual program of activities for villages namely Kampung Bersinar (Clean, Healthy, Beautiful, Beautiful and Neat). One of the areas that have greening problems is RW 04, Gadang, Malang City on the banks of the Brantas river. Lack of greening in this area causes this area to be prone to landslides because the area is very contoured. That's why the focus of community service is to educate the public in the field of greening to improve the quality of the environment in the area. The method used is Participatory Action Research (PAR) which involves community action in its activities. The activity carried out was to train the creation of ornamental plants in the form of spheres growing to PKK women in RW 04, Gadang, Malang. The results of this activity are PKK mothers who have new knowledge by making ornamental plant creations that can be applied in the area so that it will improve the quality of the green environment in the area..
