This book provides a step-by-step approach to undertaking participatory research - from design to dissemination - in an accessible and informative way. It is packed with useful features, examples and activities to help you through the participatory research process. Liam Foster, University of Sheffield Many students tend to just 'plunge into' participatory research. This textbook on both methods and underpinning values helps them step back, reflect and improve their practice. Lea den Broeder, Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences This book addresses relevant and concurrent topics comprehensively, such as co-production, ethics, data collection methods and impact. Thus, the book is a 'must-have' for (participatory) researchers and students. Annemarie Wagemakers, Wageningen University & Research
