Critical Participatory Action Research

This course offers an in-depth exploration of the history, theory, methodology, ethics and design of critical participatory action research (CPAR) thathas positioned it as an enactment of epistemic justice. Students will read about and produce their own scholarship around the how/why/what itmeans to engage, as academics and people rooted in communities, in a praxis of ‘just research’ in communities with unconventionally trainedresearchers. We will discuss the debates and critical critiques that have shaped CPAR from critical race, decolonial, feminist, queer theory, anddelve into the development and implementation of participatory design, methods, analysis and interpretation using contemporary case studies andexamples from student own research.
