Preferred term

participatory learning and action  

Definition(s)

  • Participatory development implies an approach to planning and governance that encourages and supports the two-way exchange of information between local communities and outsiders. Participatory development recognizes that community members have valuable knowledge, legitimate concerns, and a lived experience that can contribute to exploring solutions to natural resource–related issues, to planning, and, more broadly, to redressing inequality.
