PRA mapping workshop

This document is a report on workshop which had the purpose of developing a common understanding of various aspects of PRA. Another purpose was to outline PRA's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and future threats. It also aimed to identify PRA practitioners and trainers.
The report has three parts: a brief review and background of the workshop; the proceedings and outcome of the workshop in detail; and appendices that include participant's presentations, a presentation on the PRA Mapping Project, and synthesised information received from questionnaires. The SWOT analysis revealed many common points among PRA practitioners' perceptions of the approach, and future strategies were identified to address these issues under the headings of: approach, capacity building, documentation, empowerment, funds and resources, networking, policies, time.
