| dc.description.abstract | PR is an integral part of the SEIAS methodology. When applied completely and effectively, it can expand the range of alternatives created for decision-making by allowing policymakers to document and interpret a policy challenge with those affected most. 2 PR promotes close collaboration between policymakers and the participants— traditionally considered the ‘subjects’ of a study. PR allows them to establish a research agenda, collect data, conduct critical analysis, and devise activities to achieve social change. According to Booysen (2007:172), participation in public policy (PP) decision-making is crucial. This involvement affords people and groups a ‘transformational voice’, enabling them to affect outcomes. This reasoning has severe implications for the ideals of democracy (Booysen, 2007 | |
