“…PAR and related participatory research approaches, in general, share inspiration from John Dewey's pragmatic call to participatory democracy and direct action in the 1930s [25,26], along with Kurt Lewin's [27] arguments that everyday people should be more involved with relevant decision-making [28]. Paulo Freire's landmark book [29] Liberation Theology pressed for human-centered approaches to addressing social issues as core ethical and educational issues, greatly inspiring the central tenets of PAR.…”

Citizen science holds the potential and capacity to change the role of science in the face of current and impending environmental sustainability challenges. However, the sustainability science community must also address the ethical challenges inherent in the nature and outcomes of citizen participation and inclusion. In this article, we provide a brief history of Participatory Action Research (PAR), long popular in the social sciences, and explain how participatory methods can inform the process and products of citizen science to meet the dueling ideals of ethically engaging communities and producing more robust science. Our decade of human-environment research on drought resilience and adaptation in the Southern High Plains of the United States illustrates how PAR complements formal science and can contribute to community resilience and adaptation efforts. Synthesized into 10 entry points for more ethical and participatory science, our semi-chronological narrative offers concrete strategies informed by PAR principles and values, at various stages of research, and highlights the place-based, ethical, and methodological contexts for applying each strategy.

“…The approach of action research, rooted in social change, builds on critical youth studies emerging from John Dewey’s concept of reflexive thinking, which informs action research as a tool to guide an individual in developing a critical question, articulating a hypothesis followed by a course of action, and evaluating the effectiveness of the research (Andrade & Cunha, 2017). It also builds on Freire’s notion of praxis while recognizing how positionality matters in reflecting on educational problems (Bautista et al, 2013; Cammarota & Fine, 2008; Harré, 2012; McVee, Silvestri, Barrett, & Haq, 2019).…”

Conducting Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) is more than a methodology; it is an epistemology—a way of positioning adolescents as agents for critical civic praxis. Educators attempting to use YPAR in traditional spaces often must navigate tensions between this type of critical pedagogy and systems that limit the definition of citizenship to civic engagement and position adolescents as passive consumers. The author examines how engaging adolescents in an action research project is subsequently reflected in their civic praxis. The author conducted a critical discourse analysis (Fairclough, 2015) to observe patterns of agency, civic praxis, and social discourse among ten high school freshmen from a rural school district in the Midwestern United States. This article describes the second phase of the qualitative study in which the adolescents completed a youth participatory action research project exploring the problem of bullying at their high school.
