Example of a title creating spaces for mutual support and empathy in participatory processes.
Here enters a subtitle: the search for a living balance between the paradoxes of creating communicative spaces.
Bruna Viana de Freitas
Action research is a process of investigating and transforming reality carried out by the people themselves—or in close collaboration with the people—who experience a particular context that one wishes to understand better and transform. It is not a single method, but a family of practices that share the intention of creating “participatory communities of inquiry in which the qualities of engagement, curiosity, and questioning are brought to the fore in meaningful practical issues” (Reason & Bradbury-Huang, 2007, p. 1, my translation) for the people involved.
Example subtitle we talking about when advocating for a "just energy transition”?
