In 1980, the first international meeting on Participatory Research was held in Ljubljana (in former Yugoslavia), attended by early pioneers of this ‘movement’ (Budd Hall, John Gaventa, Ted Jackson, Helen Lewis, Orlando Fals Borda, Rajesh Tandon, to name a few). The discussions from this meeting, and of the practice and theorising of Participatory Research over the next decade, began to be circulated internationally and regionally in cyclostyled newsletters, articles in now-defunded journals, and documentation of conference proceedings. Knowledge produced by social movements, in civil society, political organisations and in academia was synthesized and presented in an array of forms – text, statistics, drama, poetry, video, learning games. Such locally created and owned knowledge, used as tools to build capacities of community and social organisations in the Global South, contributed to the steady spread and sustained development of the theory and practice of Participatory Research. The origins and history of the development of the field of Participatory Research has largely remained undocumented, though it is a significant part of the oral tradition of its ‘elders’ who spearheaded the movement. In a seminal event celebrating 40 years of PRIA, in partnership with the UNESCO Chair in Community Based Research, we bring you the knowledge and experience of the ‘elders’ of Participatory Research. A lesson in history, along with explorations of its contemporary manifestations, spotlights the relevance of community-based, participatory research in a post-pandemic world. The symposium will explore the following questions:

We welcome papers focused on the social and structural determinants of COVID-19 in migrants and ethnic minorities, with a particular emphasis on the racial, gender, political, and legislative determinants of health. We are particularly interested in papers that employ transdisciplinary, participatory, and co-production research approaches to meaningfully involve migrants and ethnic minorities in the response to COVID-19, in its broadest sense. This includes a wide range of topics including, but not limited to, occupational determinants of health, access and uptake of vaccines, participation of ethnic minorities in clinical trials, stigma and discrimination, the built environment, living conditions, health care entitlements, and any other broader determinant of health; as well as approaches and tools to meaningfully engage migrants and ethnic minorities in action-oriented research. ![]()
