Brief informal record of the third UK participatory trainers meeting which focussed on three themes: exploring the ways in which creative and adaptive trainers can be developed who will be able to innovate during their own training process, sharing of training lessons and discussion of the aims of the forum.

The use of video in participatory research and training is a growing practice. The potentials and constraints to its use are examined in this document and a comparison made with other methods of recording, based on experiences from both 'northern' and southern' countries.

This document exaines the impact of PRA training programmes held in Scotland on both the participants and the community groups providing them with field experience. The constraints and opportunities of working with these dual client groups are discussed.

Brief report of field work carried out in Croy village, an ex-mining village in Lanarkshire, as part of PRA training course.
