Ibon manual on facilitating participatory research.

Ibon manual on facilitating participatory research. - Manila : Ibon Foundation, c2004. - ix, 137 p. : ill. 28 cm.

The book is a project of the IBON Databank and Research Center that documents the process report and the training modules developed for two indigeneous groups in Mindanao-the Subanen and Dibabawon. IBON's objective is to apply the principles of participatory research where in the people in the localities where the research is being conducted are the principal actors in designing the research, implementing and evaluating the results. Social activists and consultants working with the members of the community only take a secondary role in the process of defining the researchobjectives, design and plan, conducting the research and evaluating the results. The ultimate objective, however, in developing the people's research is to empower the poorest and the marginalized sectors of the society.
