IFAD PRA Review: Comments on Field Visits, 23-24 January 1995
This report discusses the adoption on a large scale of PRA in the Tuyen Quang IFAD Participatory Resource Management Project, Vietnam. Some comparisons with its application in a SIDA forestry project in the same area are made. Two approaches were adopted: one is a 'shortened form of PRA' and the other is 'questionnaire PRA'. The use of PRA in the IFAD project has become standardised and generalised, leading to standardised and generalised solutions - a product of its target orientation in monitoring and evaluation.
