Participatory action research is an innovative collaborative research method that includes the groups that are being studied. In this video, Shira Hassan of the Young Women’s Empowerment Project, a community-based, youth-led project that was founded in 2001, discusses the use of participatory action research in the project’s recent report, “Girls Do What They Have To Do To Survive.”
