The Midis-RAP: A place of inspiration for participatory action research
The Midis-RAP are lunchtime meetings of citizens, non-academic researchers and researchers interested in exchanging participatory action research (PAR) practices—or RAP in French, for recherche-action participative. In this article, the Midis-RAP are presented with a view to pursuing two objectives: First, based on data collected for this purpose, reflect on the contribution for the practitioners of RAP of this type of meeting, which has become a must in the region of Quebec. And secondly, based on the exceptional richness of the content of the Midis-RAP, explore the political issues facing practitioners using this research approach.
