Fosters co-learning and capacity building among all partners. Achieves a balance between knowledge generation and intervention. There are limits to what you can do just to learn something. Disadvantaged communities often get exploited, need to be very cautious of that. Involves system development using a cyclical and iterative process. Always going back to the community with questions. Disseminates results to all partners and involves them in the wider dissemination of results. Community may not want you to share the results, especially if they are unfavourable. The community owns the research, so they can control how and where it is shared.
