| description |
A great deal of literature exists on the
concept of 'action research.' Common among most is
the concept that creating dialogue among different groups
promotes change through a cycle of evaluation, action and
further evaluation, an iterative process. In particular,
action research has been described as embracing
'principles of participation and reflection, and
empowerment and emancipation of groups seeking to improve
their social situation.' The World Bank
Institute's (WBI) Governance program applies the
methodology described both in the piloting of its new
approaches to public sector management issues and its
dissemination of lessons learned from such pilots and
experiences elsewhere. The program arose from a need to
provide assistance to those countries and governments
seeking to reform an unsatisfactory governance environment. |
