dc.descriptionThis document describes the evolving role of participatory and rapid rural appraisal techniques in veterinary epidemiology with particular reference to disease surveillance. The use of participatory and qualitative research techniques is discussed in relation to conventional quantitative research. The document addresses the methods used in qualitative enquiry to assure that the analysis is rigorous and that results are trustworthy (Pretty, 1994). It also presents a number of PRA tools that have been applied in animal health reconnaissance and suggests other tools that may merit application. Finally, future directions for participatory qualitative research are discussed relative to the challenges facing veterinary epidemiology today.The discussion is generally indebted to a number of key papers and documents in the field of qualitative enquiry (Chambers, 1983; Moris and Copestake, 1993 and Pretty, 1994) as well as participatory and rapid rural appraisal (McCracken among others, 1988; Narayan, 1996 and Theis and Grady, 1991). In addition, the author has drawn upon his own personal experience and that of his colleagues in qualitative and quantitative epidemiology in Africa and Asia.
